Book Synopsis Appetite for America by : Stephen Fried
Download or read book Appetite for America written by Stephen Fried and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2011-05-03 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Featured in the PBS documentary The Harvey Girls: Opportunity Bound The legendary life and entrepreneurial vision of Fred Harvey helped shape American culture and history for three generations—from the 1880s all the way through World War II—and still influence our lives today in surprising and fascinating ways. Now award-winning journalist Stephen Fried re-creates the life of this unlikely American hero, the founding father of the nation’s service industry, whose remarkable family business civilized the West and introduced America to Americans. Appetite for America is the incredible real-life story of Fred Harvey—told in depth for the first time ever—as well as the story of this country’s expansion into the Wild West of Bat Masterson and Billy the Kid, of the great days of the railroad, of a time when a deal could still be made with a handshake and the United States was still uniting. As a young immigrant, Fred Harvey worked his way up from dishwasher to household name: He was Ray Kroc before McDonald’s, J. Willard Marriott before Marriott Hotels, Howard Schultz before Starbucks. His eating houses and hotels along the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe railroad (including historic lodges still in use at the Grand Canyon) were patronized by princes, presidents, and countless ordinary travelers looking for the best cup of coffee in the country. Harvey’s staff of carefully screened single young women—the celebrated Harvey Girls—were the country’s first female workforce and became genuine Americana, even inspiring an MGM musical starring Judy Garland. With the verve and passion of Fred Harvey himself, Stephen Fried tells the story of how this visionary built his business from a single lunch counter into a family empire whose marketing and innovations we still encounter in myriad ways. Inspiring, instructive, and hugely entertaining, Appetite for America is historical biography that is as richly rewarding as a slice of fresh apple pie—and every bit as satisfying. *With two photo inserts featuring over 75 images, and an appendix with over fifty Fred Harvey recipes, most of them never-before-published.

Book Synopsis Pueblo Shields from the Fred Harvey Fine Arts Collection by : Barton Wright
Download or read book Pueblo Shields from the Fred Harvey Fine Arts Collection written by Barton Wright and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prehistorically, small hand-held shields are portrayed in Anasazi and Fremont rock paintings and petroglyphs from presumably around the thirteenth century, ideal for use with clubs in hand-to- hand combat. These are contemporaneous with numerous depictions of pedestrian shield bearers with large body shields. Historically the Apache, Comanche, and Ute shared design elements; Apache painting on rawhide is well-known for its use of serrations. Western Plateau and Kutenai "painted teeth as borders in parfleche motifs." Designs on prehistoric shields and on historic shields are both variable and repeated, the latter since the round field of the shield often dictates a predilection for certain solutions to decoration. Very few shield designs are exclusive to any one cultural or tribal group. A design commonly used on historic Rio Grande Pueblo shields: A characteristic pattern consisting of a wide band, often decorated with three or so circles, that cuts the shield face in two horizontally. Above are buffalo horns, and below a fan-shaped element suggestive of eagle tail feathers. The fact that shields were often obtained (as by the Navajo) from other tribes is a major factor, accounting for a broad distribution of designs and other features of manufacture during the historic period. In addition, during the early historic and even Protohistoric period, designs were often widely shared between different tribal groups. This was especially the case, once the horse was introduced and communication became fluid over vast territories.
