An historical overview of talking clocks and their contributions to Americana. Horologist and talking clock collector, Dr. Mark B. McKinley captures in words and pictures over 100 years of the varieties and uses of talking clocks. He examines the way people verbally express time, teach the telling-of-time to children, cartoon/movie characters, heroes and celebrities, to the latest talking atomic clocks and the accuracy therein. In this first book on talking clocks, Dr. McKinley explores the topic of time not previously dealt with, and for that is certainly part and parcel of the history of clocks.
He is also actively pursuing Guinness to certify that his is the largest collection of talking clocks!
