This memoir tells the story of Stanley Marcus, and their family's journey from the working-class neighborhood of the Bronx to the upper-middle-class enclave of Westchester County, New York. Marcus and Stanley's father, a union organizer and political activist, instilled in them a love of community and a belief in the power of collective action. The family's experiences during the Great Depression and World War II taught them the importance of hard work and resilience. Marcus and Stanley became successful businessmen, but they never forgot their roots or the people who had helped them get there. In Minding the Store, they share their stories of family, community, and hard work.; 8vo ; 383 pages.
