Sea Clocks The Story of Longitude by Louise Borden illustrated by Erik Blegvad*

 Ms. Borden presents the tenacity of Englishman John Harrison as he attempts (and succeeds) to create a clock that allow sailors to calculate longitude. Mr. Blegvad's watercolor and ink art is detailed and intricate. I liked his illustrations so much I requested a couple other books he illustrated. 

*Highly recommend.

-Borrowed from the library.
