You know, I don’t really think about who makes my cereal or other food for that matter. I think about the ingredients, health benefits, etc.
Marjorie Merriweather Post was the only child of C.W. Post and inherited his growing company upon his death. It expanded even more under her leadership. She was dedicated, strong, hard working and brave. She lived a full life and the author delves into that in this book. She did a tremendous amount of research, and told the tale of a woman who hosted presidents, had an extensive art collection, was a philanthropist, had many love affairs (and husbands) and was a female business owner in a time where a woman’s place was in the kitchen not the board room.
Fans of historical fiction will enjoy this book.
