On the Town in New York: The Landmark History of Eating, Drinking, and Entertainments from the American Revolution to the Food Revolution
"A delightfully nostalgic look at some of the notable eating and drinking establishments and their celebrated clientele," said LJ's reviewer of this volume, which takes readers on a tour of such sites as Brodie's, Delmonico's, McSorley's, the Waldorf Astoria, and the Plaza Hotel. With most of the text covering 1860 to 1970, this book "is a portrait of changing American tastes, habits, and behavior" (LJ 2/15/74).Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc.
