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 600 10 $a Post, Marjorie Merriweather $v Fiction. 600 17 $a Post, Marjorie Merriweather. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00340955 610 20 $a Postum Cereal Co. $v Fiction. 610 20 $a General Foods Corporation $v Fiction. 610 27 $a General Foods Corporation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00512060 648 7 $a 1929 $2 fast 650 0 $a Heiresses $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Rich people $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Depressions $y 1929 $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Depressions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00890969 650 7 $a Heiresses. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01747995 650 7 $a Rich people. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01097537 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726537 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726640 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 941 $a 4 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611021619.0 952 $l NVPB663 $d 20240606010254.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20240305011459.0 952 $l W7PA017 $d 20240213010652.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9A54F1CCCA3D11EEB6B0F94039ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
