About this listen

 Bananas are, and were, big business but also dangerous. They were integral to the family fortunes of Peter and William. In this episode Sophie speaks with family historian Peter Liefman, whose grandfather was a large wholesale banana merchant with connections to lawyer William Ah Ket. We discuss an oral history recording with William Sang Fong who worked in the fruit and vegetable wholesaling business with his father.
