Who was John Lewis? What story lies behind the retail empire that bears his name? Prize-winning biographer Victoria Glendinning has had full access to the company and family archives to write this eye-opening story. With riveting personal detail, this brilliant group biography captures a rags-to-riches story and a tempestuous family saga, and concludes with an assessment of the position John Lewis holds in British sensibilities, and whether John Lewis and institutions like it have a place in our future.
