Clock Primer is a Must Have,

This review is from: The Clock Repair First Reader: Second Steps for the Beginner (Paperback)
I love this book. I collect old clocks and have purchased many books on clock repair, but I could not use them because they were written for clock experts. After reading this book I think I can do some basic clock maintenance and repair. This book is a must for anyone who has a clock. The format is very easy to follow.

Balcomb does an outstanding job of breaking things down into simple terms. Being a novice, my confidence has been significantly bolstered with his easy to read step by step approach. This is THE book to have when undertaking antique clock repairs!

Don't buy this book here...they are way over priced!,

This review is from: The Clock Repair First Reader: Second Steps for the Beginner (Paperback)
I can't believe the price the two sellers are trying to get for this book; $50 and $99. Outrageous. Do yourself a favor and go to [...]. It's exactly the same book at a cost to you of only $16. Now you understand why I'm amazed at how some people try to take advantage of others. I do buy quite a few books here at Amazon.com and have considered most to be a good deal. [...]

Book was like new if not new as advertised. Delivery was prompt. Would have been nice if the book had been packaged in bubble wrap as postal service was quite rough on it.

Hard to follow,

This book could be difficult for a beginner. The diagrams are sometimes hard to follow. So, I wouldn't buy this one as your first book on clock repair.
