Five and Ten: The Fabulous Life of F.W. Woolworth

2014 Reprint of 1957 Revised Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Woolworth founded an international financial empire with a short lease on a tiny store, a couple of gross of tin cans and a simple but revolutionary idea. Woolworth grew up a poor farm boy who tended his father's cows barefoot, but he followed the great American dream by parlaying native ingenuity, business sense, and understanding of people into a huge fortune and establishing an institution that became a familiar part of America's way of life, The Five and Ten.
