    About this ebook

    Get the Summary of Deborah Cadbury's Chocolate Wars in 20 minutes. Please note: This is a summary & not the original book. Original book introduction: n the early nineteenth century the major English chocolate firms -- Fry, Rowntree, and Cadbury -- were all Quaker family enterprises that aimed to do well by doing good. The English chocolatiers introduced the world's first chocolate bar and ever fancier chocolate temptations -- while also writing groundbreaking papers on poverty, publishing authoritative studies of the Bible, and campaigning against human rights abuses. Chocolate was always a global business, and in the global competitors, especially the Swiss and the Americans Hershey and Mars, the Quaker capitalists met their match. The ensuing chocolate wars would culminate in a multi-billion-dollar showdown pitting Quaker tradition against the cutthroat tactics of a corporate behemoth.

      #1

      The Industrial Revolution brought great change to Birmingham, England. The streets were filled with factories and the air was filled with the smell of smoke. It was here that two young Cadbury brothers, George and Richard, worked to save the failing chocolate factory.

      In 1861, the two brothers, Richard and George, were struggling to keep the business alive. Their father, John, had died of a heart attack in 1857.

      #8

      John Cadbury, the owner of a teashop in Birmingham, England, took advantage of the latest manufacturing techniques to produce his products on a larger scale. He began producing cocoa in 1831, and within ten years had created a variety of different types for his store.
