For 125 years, William Elder & Sons Ltd. was a leading manufacturer, iron founder and distributor of agricultural machinery. This is the story of a family dynasty which started in Tweedmouth and expanded into headquarters in Berwick-upon-Tweed with branches throughout Northumberland, south-east Scotland and the Borders. The Company was a major employer in Berwick and trained numerous engineers through its apprenticeship scheme which also benefitted many firms elsewhere in the United Kingdom. The book pays tribute to the directors and employees of this enterprising Company.
