Lest we Forget |
A most intriguing book discovered by chance in my house; signed by the author - whose family history it records - it is basically the story of the alliance of the Simon family with the House of Moet & Chandon.The Simons were in the ship-broking business in the 1930s and would receive small consignments of Moet & Chandon for delivery to private consumers in the country and from there it grew into a thriving business relationship, which perhaps shows that being in the right place at the right time is correct.
Ed's Note: not to be confused with the recent book with the same title by Max Arthur
