Book Synopsis
"A meticulously researched history... [Pendergrast] aggressively sets the record straight about the birth of Coke, shattering company myths." -New York Times Book Review

Trade Review
A NEW YORK TIMES "NOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEAR" "A ripping good story of more than a soft drink or a company, this book is about the whole of America. It may be the greatest American story ever." --New York Observer "Marvelously entertaining history." --Los Angeles Times "In For God, Country & Coca-Cola, Mark Pendergrast has written an encyclopedic history of Coke and its subculture, and used Coca-Cola as a metaphor for the growth of modern capitalism itself. His research and storytelling skills are prodigious." --Washington Post "Behind the glitz and fanfare, the bubbly brown beverage has had a tortured and controversy-filled history. It is meticulously chronicled in For God, Country & Coca-Cola." --Wall Street Journal "A meticulously researched history... [Pendergrast] aggressively sets the record straight about the birth of Coke, shattering company myths." --New York Times Book Review
