Markham and Company of Chesterfield, 1889-1998 | An Illustrated History Bennett, Michael G. and K. G. Wort [Charles Markham (1823-1888) and Charles Paxton Markham (1865-1926)] (Book #ID 99535) Published by Merton Priory Press Ltd., 67 Merthyr Road, Whitchurch, Cardiff First Edition 2005. 2005. First edition in publisher's original colour illustrated stiff card wrap covers [soft back]. Quarto. 10'' x 7¼''. This work presents the history of heavy engineering company. In 1889 Charles Paxton Markham, a director of the Staveley Coal and Iron Company, purchased the premises of a failed Chesterfield engineering concern, Oliver and Sons. Under his vigorous leadership, Markham and Co. developed into a highly successful business, specialising in winders and other colliery equipment. In 1924 the company was absorbed into the Staveley combine and in 1937 became part of John Brown. It was later owned by Trafalgar House and finally Kvaerner, which closed the Chesterfield site in 1998. This book tells the story of one of the best known heavy engineering companies in Britain, which was also for many years a major employer in Chesterfield. As well as mining equipment, Markham specialised in water turbines and tunnelling machinery, including plant for the Channel Tunnel. It exported to many countries. Written by two former directors, the book is valuable not only as a general account of a large engineering company but also as a first-hand case-study of efforts to sustain such a business in recent decades. Contains 128 printed pages of text with 73 monochrome illustrations and archive photographs throughout. Small stain to the top front corner which affects the first dozen pages, in Very Good condition, no dust wrapper as issued. Member of the P.B.F.A.
