Once in a while, a story comes along that is so compelling it demands to be told. We All Win tells of people and events beginning with a penniless youth's flight from Poland in 1882 in search of a better life. He was Louis Snyder, founder of L. Snyder's department store in Norfolk, Virginia. Vintage photos, colorful cartoons and graceful prose depict three generations of retailers. All were shaped by their family's philosophies focusing on a customer for life, which one among them brought into the rough-and-tumble car business of the 1960s. It happened in 1964, when, on a whim, Louis Snyder's grandson Ed invested in a tiny British sports car dealership. At his wife Jean's suggestion, he named it Checkered Flag. From the very first day, Ed made it clear: We're not just selling cars; we're selling the Checkered Flag brand. And that brand is about putting customers first and keeping them for life. Never before has a book like this one been written about the auto business from the dealer's standpoint. Candid, entertaining, and, at times, moving, We All Win is a very American story of taking risks, overcoming failure, holding true to a mission, and of a passion for retailing that lives on. Purchase price includes handling. Funds raised through its sale benefit United Way of South Hampton Roads in Virginia.
