Description: "Beatrice Cadbury, daughter of the world-famous chocolate empire, grew up with all the privileges: a fine mansion with servants, a well-rounded education and the chance to travel the world and see all its glories. But being a 'have' in a world of 'have-nots' was troubling, and in 1920 she decided to 'give back' all the Cadbury shares she had inherited to the Bournville factory workers ... with unexpected consequences."--Publisher.
