The delicious true story of the early chocolate pioneers by the award-winning writer & direct descendant of the famous chocolate dynasty Deborah Cadbury In Chocolate Wars bestselling historian & award-winning documentary maker Deborah Cadbury takes a journey into her own family history to uncover the rivalries that have driven 250 years of chocolate empire-building. In the early nineteenth century Richard Tapper Cadbury sent his son John to London to study a new & exotic commodity: cocoa. Within a generation Johns sons Richard & George had created a chocolate company to rival the great English firms of Fry & Rowntree & their European competitors Lindt & Nestle. The major English firms were all Quaker family enterprises & their business aims were infused with religious idealism. In America Milton Hershey & Forrest Mars proved that they had the appetite for business on a huge scale & successfully resisted the English companies attempts to master the American market. As chocolate companies raced to compete around the globe Quaker capitalism met a challenge that would eventually defeat it. At the turn of the millennium Cadbury the sole independent survivor of Englands chocolate dynasties became the worlds largest confectionary company.

Featuring a colourful cast of savvy entrepreneurs brilliant eccentrics & resourceful visionaries Chocolate Wars is the story of a uniquely alluring product & of the evolution for better & worse of modern business. ...
