American Empress is a sweeping history of the dramatic life of heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post, daughter of breakfast-cereal magnate C. W. Post. As a young girl growing up in the Midwest, Marjorie Post helped glue cereal boxes in her father's barn, later became a board member of his company, wed a diplomat and by late middle age was widely acknowledged as the unofficial "Queen of Washington, D.C." The glamorous and warm-hearted Mrs. Post was also mother to actress Dina Merrill. Throughout her life, she gave generously to hundreds of civic, artistic and philanthropic causes, among which were the National Symphony Orchestra, the Washington Ballet and the Kennedy Center. By virtue of her brains, beauty and great wealth, Mrs. Post was a woman well ahead of her era, whose natural business acumen created the frozen foods industry and transformed the Postum Cereal Company into the General Foods Corporation.Binding Type: Paperback

HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried many lotions & creams for my rough elbows & dry feet. Soon after I applied this cream I was surprised to see how soft my elbows & feet were. I use this cream on my arms, legs, feet & hands, it has improved the condition of my skin dramatically. AWESOME cream!

Smells Amazing and Keeps Skin Soft
I really like this lotion so far. It keeps my skin moisturized without feeling greasy, and the cocoa scent smells really good without being overpowering. My skin feels softer and smoother after using it consistently.
It absorbs nicely and works well for dry skin, especially after showering. For the price and size, it’s definitely worth buying again.

It's a staple in my household
I've been using it for years.
It's my go-to product.
Not too thick, just silky on my skin that always leaves me moisturized all day.
The price is great for the quality & most importantly, lightly scented, not overpowering
