Diary of a Waitress: The Not-So-Glamorous Life of a Harvey Girl by Carolyn Meyer

4.0

With two brothers and a father who love trains, I was familiar with Fred Harvey and his restaurants. As a child we would go to the Spinning Wheel, a Harvey house in suburban Chicago, for special occasions but ever since my trip to Dodge City and the Grand Canyon I've been reading everything I can find about Fred Harvey. This book looks at the life of a young Harvey Girl in Kansas and Arizona. I found it interesting. I would recommend it to anyone who, like me, is fascinated by the Harvey houses and the old west.
