Fantastic!
A great book. Easy to read. Really puts into perspective the challenges of old in navigation and the impact longitude had on the world we live in today. I have not had a fun read like this in a long time.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Sobel renders a fairly complex subject understandable to the layman. She is a superior researcher and writer. rckBestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
