Rezensionen

'What emerges from Deborah Cadbury's vibrant history is the growing importance of advertising, the birth of brands and the impact of the financial markets' appetite for profit over national interest or social welfare...most poignant is her portrait of an impressive pair of brothers...engaging and scholarly, confident and compassionate...less a family biography than an impressively thought-provoking parable for our times' Daily Telegraph

'This is history, brought bang up to date, in the hands of a master chocolatier-storyteller' Evening Standard

'There are fascinating things here...I relished the story of chocolate itself' Observer

'Clear, readable and richly detailed' Sunday Times
