The Cocoa Works By Alex Hutchinson And James Maxton
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
This story takes you from the industrious Tukes, and their enterprising friend, Henry Isaac Rowntree, to a humble grocer's shop in pavement, York, where young Quaker apprentices, Cadbury and Fry, learned the trade under the benevolent wing of Joseph Rowntree Snr. The history of York's greatest chocolate factory spans two world wars and a hundred years of innovation. The legion of loyal workers weathered boom and bust to create world-renowned brands that still sway the hearts and minds of millions around the world. The story culminates with the PS2.5 billion acquisition that ensured the heritage and vision of Rowntree's in York would live on, under the global banner of Nestle. Lavishly illustrated throughout with previously unseen material with painstaking research, to shed a new light on the working life of the factory. Very minor handling wear but otherwise as new.
