Description:
Signed on top of title page, "To Stephen Michael D'Antonio 1-24-06" Book was signed in Hershey, Pa. Mr. D'Antonio did not do an extensive book tour, so signed copies are very limited.Many locals in Hershey were outraged with this book, because it exposed the human side of Mr. Hershey that had not been published before.
"The name Hershey evokes many things: chocolate bars, the company town in Pennsylvania, one of America's most recognizable brands. But who was the man behind the name? In this compelling biography, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Michael D'Antonio gives us the real-life rags-to-riches story of Milton S. Hershey, a largely uneducated businessman whose idealistic sense of purpose created an immense financial empire, a town, and a legacy that lasts to this day." Simon & Shuster blurb.
