His perceptive analysis of the way in which the fortunes of the company were linked to the development of the brand makes a compelling case study. His research has been meticulous and Cadbury’s Purple Reign will deservedly attract a wide readership.”

“Few if any brands developed during the 19th-century have the relevance and appeal that Cadbury takes into the 21st. In Cadbury’s Purple Reign John Bradley gives an authoritative account of the values on which the brand was built and how these influenced its direction at critical times. Not only is this an excellent business case study but it will also have wider appeal as the definitive story of a household name.”
