“In presenting Clockmakers of Northumberland and Durham, Keith Bates offers us probably the best example of area research ever to have been published. He has resisted the temptation of attempting to put too much into too few pages and the result is a heavy volume of some 300 pages in hard covers and measuring about 12in x 81/2in.”
