Time Restored: The Harrison timekeepers and R.T. Gould, the man who knew (almost) everything
In this first-ever biography of Gould, Jonathan Betts, Senior Horologist at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, offers a compelling account of this unique man. Drawing on so far unpublished journals, an extensive family archive of photographs, and Gould's own notes, Betts describes how Gould's life came together in the restoration of Britain's and the world's most important and complex mechanical aid to navigators.
