Welcome to L Dexter & Sons - an establishment of another time: of starched white aprons, super fancies and tea dances, where the highest business ethics rule conduct and the fortunes of the family unit are tied in the success or failure of a shared venture. With exceptional attention to detail and his unique viewpoint, Kenneth Dexter brings to life this illustrious company and its family's history - their ambitions and triumphs, their trials and trysts. Multifaceted, it is both the intimate story of three generations' progress in their hometown, and a fascinating history of Britain at a time of great change.
