On November 30, 1902, The New York Times reprinted this insightful and admiring profile of George Westinghouse written by F. A. McKenzie for The London Mail.
After following Westinghouse around his plants in Wilmerding for several days, McKenzie reported in detail on how they worked and what made them special. He provides both familiar stories and fresh observations.
As McKenzie concludes, “I set out to write the secret of Wilmerding. There is no secret about it, or the success Mr. Westinghouse has obtained. Men who imitate his foresight and care can safely reckon on accomplishing great things.”
