Prize for Business History

Written October 31st, 2011 | Leave a Comment

I was reading The Spectator yesterday and I discovered there is an annual prize for the best business history. It’s called the Wadsworth prize and it’s awarded by the Business Archives Council. Journalist, Martin Vander Weyer, was one of the judges and he picked out  Deborah Cadbury’s Chocolate Wars as a favourite. It got an excellent review here, and seems to have pleased customers at Amazon.

The overall winner was The Rise and Fall of Great Companies by Geoffrey Owen.
