SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE Time=(SELECT MAX(Time) FROm Table)

OR

SELECT * FROM Table t
INNER JOIN (SELECT MAX(Time) AS MaxTime FROM Table)tmp
ON tmp.MaxTime=t.Time

The question is not clear please specify how you want your output to be.

Any way if u want to get latest record from any table
use this

select top 1 * from table name order by time desc

SELECT TOP 1 * FROM Table ORDER BY Time DESC

SELECT UserName, BookName, Time
FROM (
SELECT UserName, BookName, Time, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY UserName ORDER BY Time DESC) AS RecID
FROM Table
) AS d
WHERE RecID = 1

E 12°55'05.25"
N 56°04'39.16"
