"At a time when the South was in the grip of dire poverty and held captive by a vicious credit system, William Henry Belk and his brother, Dr. John Montgomery Belk, pioneered such innovations as the all-cash business, clearly marked retail prices with no haggling at the counter, and unquestioned refunds when a customer was not satisfied. The Belks thrived by giving store managers part-ownership--and thus a stake in their continued success."

Good condition. Solid copy with some shelf wear.
