The Phelan feud : the bitter struggle for control of a great Canadian food empire / Stephen Kimber. by Kimber, Stephen. Barlow Book Publishing c2024.

Summary:  "Paul James Phelan transformed his family's staid, one-hundred-year-old railway catering business into one of Canada's largest and most dynamic restaurant empires, boasting popular chains like Swiss Chalet and Harvery's. His dream was to see it not only thrive for another one hundred years but continue to be a family-controlled enterprise. And yet he wouldn't -- or couldn't -- seed the ground for a smooth transition to the next generation. Perhaps he hoped his only son, Paul David, would someday succeed him. But Paul James either didn't have faith in his son's commitment or talent to take on the top job, or -- more likely -- couldn't imagine anyone but himself in charge. He certainly couldn't see his daughters taking over. In a quandary, the patriarch set brother against sisters, and unintentionally -- or not-- lit the match that threatened to consume his cherished family business." --Jacket.
