A true tale of balls-out 19th Century Science. Chris explains the 23 year journey of surveyor, William Lambton's Trigonometric mapping of India in the early 1800's.
I love this story for my college surveying students! Great summary by Chris. I really wish BBC would replay "Mapping Everest: The Story of the Great Arc" or that I could buy a copy!
