Complicated Watches and Their Repair
ISBN: 9780719800900 / Twarda / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dealing with a complicated watch used to be a rare job for the watch repairer, but with the popularity of the automatic, it is almost commonplace. Furthermore, the increased interest in calendar work, alarm watches, and chronographs will undoubtedly bring more and more complicated work into the workshop. This book deals with complicated work essentially from the repairer's point of view. The action of each mechanism is briefly and clearly described, dismantling and assembly instructions are given, as well as oiling charts and hints on fault-finding and their rectification.

Lydia
ISBN: 9781456413002 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lydia tells her side of her marriage to the notorious petty criminal, Henry Tufts (1748 - 1831). She bore him six children and raised 5 of them at a time when women could not own property, vote, or have much to say about circumstances of their own lives. Language used is Lydia's, as is her opinion of things that affect her life. Her story, as imagined by the author, should interest her descendents, because not much has ever been written about her.
