Pilling Always Pays is a 1954 family saga novel by the British writer Thomas Armstrong. It is the second in the Crowther Chronicles and the sequel to his 1940 bestseller The Crowthers of Bankdam.[1] It follows the further adventures of the Crowther family of mill owners now led in the 1930s by Sam Pilling, the grandson of Simeon Crowther. A review in News Chronicle described it as being "as good as The Crowthers of Bankdam".[2] Two further novels in the series Sue Crowther's Marriage and Our London Office were published.
It was named as a best seller for the week in The West Australian newspaper on 24 December 1954.[3]
