Read it:
Switzerland, Paris, London, Texas and Toronto, 1850 to 2007. Cesar Ritz, the last child of a Valais mountain family, and Auguste Escoffier, a village blacksmith's son, build at the Savoy a way of serving people that can be written down, taught, repeated and finally sold under a name. They are dismissed for taking commissions and open their own house on the Place Vendome. Two decades later Conrad Hilton buys a Texas rooming house and finds that what a traveler pays for is not a bed. Isadore Sharp, a Toronto plasterer's son, works out last and most expensively that the scarcest thing in a luxury hotel is the person who cleans it. Covers Cesar Ritz, Auguste Escoffier, Conrad Hilton, Isadore Sharp, The Savoy, Paris Ritz, Hilton Hotels Corporation, and Four Seasons.
