Barely literate, and supporting his mother and sisters from the age of ten, Abu Chaker built up a business empire--despite twice losing everything he had. Diana Darke follows his tumultuous journey, from instability in Syria and civil war in Lebanon, to his arrival in England in the 1970s, where he rescued a failing Yorkshire textile mill, Hield Bros, and transformed it into a global brand.

The Merchant of Syria tells two parallel stories: the life of a cloth merchant and his resilience, and the rich history of a nation built on trade. Over millennia Syria has seen great conflict and turmoil, but like the remarkable story of Abu Chaker, it continues to survive.

Fantastic Fiber Supplement!
Size: 1.86 Pound (Pack of 1)
I've been using Metamucil Daily Fiber + Collagen for a few weeks now, and I'm genuinely impressed. The orange flavor is pleasant and not too overpowering, making it easy to incorporate into my daily routine. I love that it's sugar-free and sweetened with stevia, which fits perfectly with my dietary preferences. The 3-in-1 fiber formula, combined with collagen, is a great bonus for my digestive health and overall well-being. Since starting this, I've noticed a significant improvement in my digestion and feel more energetic. Highly recommend for anyone looking to boost their fiber intake with a tasty, effective supplement!

Don't expect it taste like the original
This does not taste like the original with sugar, and if you drink this right after drinking the other one, you can taste the difference. But it's a heck of a lot better than the off brands with stevia. If you give it sometime and forget what the original taste like, this is great! I like the fact that it does not have sugar or aspartame. It works good for regularity. I used this twice a day after surgery with lots of water to help with the anesthesia constipation and have continued to use it.
