Directory of British Scientific Instrument Makers, 1550-1851
Author: Gloria Clifton
Publisher: Philip Wilson Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
This publication lists over 5,000 scientific instrument makers and retailers working in the British Isles, together with a further 10,000 names of apprentices and associates. The directory transforms our understanding of the history of the scientific instrument-making trades in Britain.
