A dark tale of a fan of "The Collector" who took it to heart and tried to create his own "Miranda" in his dungeon. A sick retelling of a murder spree


Longtitude: the true story of a lone genius who solved the greatest scientific problem of his time
Review Date: 12/19/2010


A great read for those who like to think back to the time when ships headed out for sea and were never sure when they would run into dry land again, without the ability to accurately predict where in the world they were east to west. Finally made me understand why they call degrees of longitude "minutes" and "seconds".
