Milton S. Hershey brought affordable milk chocolate to America, creating and then satisfying the chocoholic urges of millions, and pioneering techniques of branding, mass production, and marketing. But as he developed massive factories, Cuban sugar plantations, and a vacation wonderland called Hershey Park, M.S. never lost sight of a grander goal. Determined that his wealth produce a lasting legacy, he tried to create perfect places where his workers could live, perfect schools for their children, and a perfect charity to salvage the lives of needy children in perpetuity. Along the way, he overcame his personal childhood traumas, as well as the death, after a short and intensely romantic marriage, of the one woman he ever loved.--From publisher description. 600 10 Hershey, Milton Snavely,|d1857-1945.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n84074973 600 17 Hershey, Milton Snavely,|d1857-1945.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/131348 610 20 Hershey Chocolate Corporation|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n82092313|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005024 610 27 Hershey Chocolate Corporation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/570318 648 7 20th century|2fast 650 0 Chocolate industry|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85024606|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n78095330-781|xHistory|y20th century. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 650 0 Businesspeople|zUnited States|vBiography.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2007102267 650 7 Chocolate industry.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 858292 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Businesspeople.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/842980 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 7 Biographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919896 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026049 901 MARCIVE 20231220 935 406675 994 C0|bRID
