More about the book
The Fred Harvey legacy is marked by its high-quality dining and hospitality along the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railway, transforming the travel experience in the American Southwest. Travelers were welcomed by the iconic Harvey Girls, who provided a stark contrast to the typical service of the time. While many former Harvey Houses now function as museums and civic centers, a select few continue to operate as premier hotels at notable locations, including the Grand Canyon and Santa Fe, preserving a unique piece of American history.
