Time and Tide Wait for No Man: George Hammond PLC, 1767-1992

"A company with the long tradition of George Hammond, which has operated successfully for 225 years in the same relatively small geographical area close to the world's busiest shipping lane, has not only seen dramatic changes over this long period but has done well to survive through good times and bad, through the vicissitudes of innumerable wars, including two world wars, and through the extraordinary progress of technology."
