From Cotton Picker to Store Keeper: The Brookshire Grocery Company Story, (Paperback)

The Brookshire story is a story of family. Founder W.T. "Wood" Brookshire transformed the first Brookshire's store into the cornerstone of one of the largest family-owned grocery chains in the country. In this book, Wood never meets a stranger and gives "jump over the counter" customer service to everyone who walks in his stores. When a devastating fire and a world war threaten to destroy everything, Wood looks to the fundamentals of hard work, honor and integrity to pull the Company through. Rich with local and Texas history, the Brookshire Grocery Company story is unforgettable and inspiring.
