The Magnificent Lives of Marjorie Post by Allison Pataki

4.0

---

Really interesting read! Marjorie Merryweather Post was once the wealthiest woman in America before the age of 30. Although she was the heir of Post cereal, she also had a real hand in building the General Foods empire. She was married four times to some other notable figures, and was close friends with many Presidential families. Really, a remarkable woman — and a fun, engaging story in its own right. I found the origins of Post vs. Kellogg to be especially interesting!
