When Charles Alderton mixed together his distinctive brand of flavors, he had no idea he was creating a soft drink that would become a national sensation. In 1986, Dr Pepper merged with Seven-Up, another leader in the fast-growing non-cola category. Seven-Up began life in 1929, with the unlikely name of Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda. Illustrated with gorgeous advertising and photographs from the earliest days of the soft drink industry, this lavish volume tells the surprising story of ongoing battles for industry supremacy.
