Books by Ron Geesin

Featuring serious and comical observations parallel its chequered life, this book focuses on its beginnings in the blacksmith's shop to over-designed and lovingly engineered treasures from the small Birmingham machinist.

Stimulated by the readers' reactions to The Adjustable Spanner - a follow-on book was needed to cover the breadth and depth of new material. Volume II will be of great interest to collectors, industrial historians, engineers and hobbyist engineers. Richard Clyburn set the modern standard for adjustable spanners. Covers the amusing and amazing lives of inventors such as farmers, publicans and colliery workers who were fascinated with this tool. Superbly illustrated with 235 colour photos.

Celebrating more than 50 years of the ground-breaking Atom Heart Mother
