Cover of Edgar Jones: History of GKN (PDF)

This is the story of a major business enterprise. It describes the transformation of a small partnership, formed in 1759, into an international group, the scale of whose diverse activities has demanded the creation of a multi-divisional structure, supported by many specialist departments. Probably the most longeval of Britain’s current manufacturing companies, GKN’s history may be interpreted as a unique and revealing insight into Britain’s industrial experience over past centuries.
