xiv, 257 pages. Index. Numerous quality black and white reproductions of archival photos. "Since 1924 Robert MacGregor had worked to perfect an acceptable design of steel hatch cover. In 1933 he entered into partnership with his brother Joseph and in November 1945 Henri Kummerman arrived on the Tyne for his first meeting with the MacGregors. Kummerman's extraordinary entrepreneurial talent was to be the catalyst that activated the now legendary success of the international MacGregor organisation. That these men came together to change the shape of ships is a matter of record. The driving energy and passion with which Henri Kummerman set about telling the world about the need for change are descriobed in the pages of this book, as is the story of this highly successful multinational business." - dust jacket.
