From their roots in Dumfriesshire to Glasgow, Liverpool, London and South America, the McCalls have demonstrated a remarkable ability to adapt to the changing political and economic environment. Over a period of 270 years they responded to opportunities and took risks. They enjoyed business success and wealth as well as failure and the need to seek pastures new. This is a story of constant change and reinvention. Sir John Stuttard is married to Lesley, the younger daughter of Elizabeth Daish, nee McCall. In this book he has taken existing knowledge of the fascinating history of the family and added to this, through research, to tell the story of one branch of the British McCalls over a period of 270 years. John was born in Lancashire and, like many McCalls, moved away from home - aged 22, to London where he lived for 46 years and where he served as Lord Mayor in 2007. He hopes that this book will inspire future generations to take advantage of opportunities presented to them as the McCalls have done.
