Before global positioning systems, modern map making—even before America was America—the concept of longitude was just a dream. Without its guidance, navigation in the 1700s was both unpredictable and deadly…until one man solved the mystery. Richard Dreyfuss narrates this dramatic recreation of longitude’s difficult birth, and the remarkable history-making life of a humble, ingenious country carpenter named John Harrison.
