Product Details
- There is no other company, industry, or premises more closely alignedindeed almost synonymouswith its hometown than Guinness’s St. James’s Gate Brewery and the city of Dublin. From the company’s modest beginnings in 1759 to its heyday in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and its continued strength into the twenty-first century, Guinness has had an enormous influence over the city’s economic, social, and cultural life.In this warm and fascinating piece of history, Tony Corcoran examines the magnitude of the brewery’s operation, and the working lives of the thousands of Dubliners who have depended on Guinness for their livelihood, either directly or indirectly. The company’s unusually progressive treatment of its workershealth care, training, and housingis revealed in detail, as is the Guinness family’s philanthropy and compassion towards the less well-off residents of the city. Tracing Guinness’s progressive attitudes to their roots, Corcoran also explores the important roles of the strong-willed women in each generation of the Guinness dynasty. Guinness is a labor of love, full of anecdotes, humor, and historical insights into one of Dublin’s most important and best-loved institutions.Whenever I bleed, I am always surprised to see that my blood is not black. Certainly, when you consider that I was born into two Guinness families, had two Guinness grandfathers and five Guinness uncles, and was on the premises of Guinness before I could walk, I am as much a product of Guinness as the black stuff itself.

Beer Editorial Review
This book provides a comprehensive insight into the history and background of Guinness Brewery. The author has done a great job in presenting the truth about the man and the family behind the world’s greatest beer. From the establishment of a Company Hospital for the workers and their families to retirement and several benefit programs, the Guinness family set an example for industrial institutions to achieve and duplicate. The book highlights the benevolence of the family towards its workers and readers can glimpse the caring treatment of the employees who produced this wonderful brew. A company that gave back to the world asking for nothing in return but an honest day’s work, from both men and women. It is indeed inspiring to read how the company provided health care, scholarships, homes for elder workers, and their families. The book presents a full story of how this beer was started, the family history, and the people who toil to bring enjoyment to those who take this drink. The institution's employees have many wonderful attributes, and the company makes them feel like valued employees.
