{"product_id":"harvey-girls","title":"Harvey Girls","description":"Zia Award for Excellence, New Mexico Press Women\n\nFrom the 1880s to the 1950s, the Harvey Girls went west to work in Fred Harvey's restaurants along the Santa Fe railway. At a time when there were \"no ladies west of Dodge City and no women west of Albuquerque,\" they came as waitresses, but many stayed and settled, founding the struggling cattle and mining towns that dotted the region. Interviews, historical research, and photographs help re-create the Harvey Girl experience. The accounts are personal, but laced with the history the women lived: the dust bowl, the depression, and anecdotes about some of the many famous people who ate at the restaurants--Teddy Roosevelt, Shirley Temple, Bob Hope, to name a few. This is the definitive work on the Harvey Girls and the Santa Fe Railway.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1569249261\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1569249261.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Poling-Kempes, Lesley\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
