America Washington was born a slave in the 1860s, and it was her creation, honey cream syrup-formulated for the plantation family for whom she cooked-that became her great-great granddaughter's key to success and independence more than a century later. Through her incredible entrepreneurial genius, indomitable spirit, aggressive sales tactics, and impenetrable faith, Michele Hoskins launched Michele Foods, Inc., to sell honey cream syrup and other products, and built it into a multimillion-dollar corporation with national distribution through chains such as Super WalMart, Albertson's, Kroger, Safeway, Stop & Shop, and Winn Dixie, among others. An inspirational and emotionally charged story that shows how the power of family, faith, and self-determination can transcend even the darkest days and lead to sweet, sweet success.Hoskins, Michele is the author of 'Sweet Expectations The Michele Hoskins Success Bible', published 2004 under ISBN 9781593372057 and ISBN 1593372051.
