There, starting with nothing, they worked tirelessly to pull themselves out of poverty, creati ng a small tobacco factory that quickly grew to become the larges t catering company in the world: J. Lyons. For over a century, Ly ons was everywhere. Its restaurants and corner houses were on eve ry high street, its coffee and tea in every cup, its products in every home. By bringing the world to the British people, the comp any transformed the way we eat, drink and are entertained - democ ratising luxury and globalising our tastes. But it was a victory that was not easily won - a story of the virtue of hard work, per severance and an indomitable spirit in the face of repeated obsta cles: poverty, hatred and injustice. It is a tale that is rarely told, of an immigrant family's journey from rags to riches: the s tory of the British Dream. Legacy charts the rise and fall of one of the most influential dynasties in British history through the lives of five astonishing generations, bound together by an unbr eakable code. This is a sweeping yet intimate work of history, fi lled with stories of sacrifice and selflessness, betrayal and per sonal tragedy, Empire and its cost, and success on an unimaginabl e scale.
