The Adjustable Spanner Volume II gathers together revelatory
information arising from Ron Geesin's first book, and combines it
with further detailed analysis of manufacturers and biographical
details of inventors. Described with warmth, detailed knowledge and
a dash of humour, and set against the backdrop of parallel
developments of the Industrial Revolution, this book brings the
enthusiast up to date with continued attempts at design
improvements to this iconic absurdity. Celebrating the global
influence of Richard Clyburn's transverse rack and worm design
which set the modern standard for adjustable spanners and
concluding with an overview of how the adjustable spanner is now
manufactured and used worldwide, this book will be an invaluable
asset to bookshelves of both the collector and the industrial
historian.
