"Our book is about business and products and all of that, but it's more about people. The creation of the book has been a really neat experience and I have genuinely enjoyed Marian's intelligence, wit, good humor, and especially her patience."

Family businesses have special reasons to celebrate their past. By leaving a record, they ensure that future generations will fully understand the personalities, values, and turning points that shaped the company's success. That record need not be a lengthy book. For smaller and regional firms, a concise, elegant keepsake publication may be the answer.

A. W. Hastings, Inc., one of New England's oldest window and door companies, has been in the hands of just two families during its 160 years. Hastings commemorated its history in an illustrated 80-page paperback that reflects the high quality and Yankee heritage for which the company is known. Part of the joy of creating this book was the opportunity to preserve the memories and insights of the 93-year-old former CEO, father of the current company leaders.
