From Ace Hardware to Ziploc, the products and logos featured in this lavishly
illustrated, story-filled reference have captured the hearts and minds of
American consumers. Each brand began with a spark of genius: Earle Dickinson
invented the Band-Aid for his accident-prone wife, Josephine. Hector Boiardi's
pasta sauce was so good that patrons of his restaurant asked for extra helpings
to take home, and Chef Boyardee was born. This is a compulsively readable
history of American brand icons.
