Product Description

The chronicle of Carrie Jacobs Bond gives reason to confirm that truth is stranger than fiction; her life was a record of struggles against odds and triumphing over obstacles. No easy effort was it to introduce something new at the turn of the Twentieth Century to the American public and make a success. The endeavor required years of arduous, incessant work, for Carrie Jacobs-Bond's success was one of gradual growth from the time that she began her music publishing in one little room to the enormous business that she and her son later controlled, a business known from Chicago to the Antipodes.
