520			_a"Longcase clocks were individually hand-made during the golden age of change and expansion that took place between the late seventeenth and mid-nineteenth centuries. That period saw the development not only of science and enlightenment but also of commerce, industrialization, consumerism and a new social order. Longcase clocks with their seventeenth century clock-making technology were innovative and incorporated an accurate pendulum clock within an attractive piece of domestic furnishing. Since the late twentieth century, the horological sector has encouraged an increasing awareness of the need to pass our clock-making heritage down to future generations. Museums do just that but so also do private owners, collectors and connoisseurs by preserving old clocks. At a time when clock menders' shops are disappearing from our high streets, this book is a fascinating guide aimed at the owners and collectors of longcase clocks and all those who would like to understand more about how those clocks work, how they are made, and how to look after them and keep them working. The construction of clock movements and cases is described and workshop notes are given on a wide range of procedures at a range of levels of expertise. This clearly written book enables anyone to understand both the clock-mender's language and the workshop procedures involved in the maintenance, restoration and conservation of these remarkable clocks."-- _cFrom the inside dust jacket.
