8882 Early Canadian Timekeepers

This remarkable work is essential reading for anyone interested in early Canadian timepieces and their makers. Two or Canada's foremost horological experts take an authoritative look at pre-1900 clocks and watches, and the artisans who made them, either commercially or as one-of-a-kind timepieces.
Lavishly illustrated, this bool surveys the making and selling of clocks and watches in Canada by over 125 persons, from the days of New France to the beginning of the 20th century. The stories of the men and women behind these exceptional creations are documented here for the first time.
Linen cover under jacket, in very good condition.
