The hundred-year history of The Timken Company is one of the great success stories of U.S. manufacturing.

In Timken: From Missouri to Mars-A Century of Leadership in Manufacturing, historian Bettye Pruitt traces the evolution of this exceptional organization and the role its bearings and specialty alloy steels have played in the advancement of essential technology from steel mills and machine tools to computer disk drives and spacecraft.
