Description
"A child of the modest farmlands of the Midwest, Marjorie was inspired by a few simple rules: Always think for yourself, never take success for granted, and work hard--even when you're American royalty, even when you're dripping in imperial diamonds. From crawling through Moscow warehouses to rescue a tsar's treasures to outrunning the Nazis in London, from serving the homeless of the Great Depression to entertaining Kennedys, Roosevelts, and Hollywood's biggest stars, Marjorie lived an epic life few could imagine. Her journey began with gluing labels to cereal boxes in her father's barn. No one could have predicted that the Post Cereal Company would grow into the General Foods empire and reshape the American way of life, with Marjorie as its heiress and leading lady. Before turning thirty she controlled millions, becoming the wealthiest woman in the United States, but it was her life force, advocacy, passion, and adventurous spirit that led to her stunning legacy. Married four times, Marjorie did everything on a magnificent scale, especially when it came to love"-- page [4] of cover
