Inside The Wrigley Family : Billion-Dollar Gum, Baseball Dreams, and Family Tragedy

The name Wrigley is an American icon, built on a product as simple as a stick of chewing gum. From a legendary marketing genius who built a global empire to the quiet son who guided it through depression and war, the Wrigley dynasty seemed invincible, forever linked with the city of Chicago and its beloved Cubs. But this is also a story of how a legacy becomes a curse—a tale of frustrating failure on the baseball field, a grandson forced to sell the team to pay the taxman, and the final, quiet end of a great American dynasty. This is the sweeping, four-generation saga of the family that built the friendly confines. #Wrigley #ChicagoCubs #AmericanHistory #BusinessHistory #WrigleyField #GildedAge #FamilyBusiness #Dynasty #Chicago #ChewingGum"
