Montreal, Beverly Hills and Asbury Park, 1889 to 2025. Three men who began with nothing a bank would lend against — a Bessarabian immigrant's son selling liquor by mail, a New Mexico storekeeper's son who bought a boarding house in an oil town, a bankrupt fuel dealer's son with one secondhand truck — built fortunes in businesses the state could close overnight, and then had to decide what to do about their children. One father split his sons and watched the company go; one wrote his children almost entirely out and gave the money to a foundation; one raised a single successor and handed him a company that was sold out from under the family anyway. This is an account of three solutions and what each of them cost. Covers Samuel Bronfman, Conrad Hilton, Leon Hess, and Distillers Corporation-Seagrams Limited.
