From the moment when the dsitute Prussian Adolph Coors stows away to America in 1868, through the creation of the Heritage Foundation, to the global expansion of the billion-dollar Coors Brewing Company, the Coors family triumphed by iron-willed commitment to its own values -- values that ironically prove the family's undoing on both the business and political fronts.</P><P>Acclaimed writer Dan Baum captures it all, from Adolph's Prohibition-provoked suicide to the banishment of an heir-apparent for marrying without permission. Baum vividly depicts the genius, eccentricity, and tragic weaknesses of the remarkable Coors family.</P> 777176 2000 Citizen Coors: A Grand Family Saga of Business, Politics, and Beer total:15|5:2|4:8|3:5|2:0|1:0| 15 57 24 5 3 0 false false Fri Dec 19 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Dec 15 12:18:00 -0800 2008 Fri Dec 19 09:46:55 -0800 2008
