Stephen Fried
APPETITE FOR AMERICA

All aboard for a presentation and book-signing with author Stephen Fried and his new book APPETITE FOR AMERICA: Fred Harvey - Civilizing the West One Meal at a Time. Fried jumps off the train to share the famous, yet almost forgotten story of an entrepreneur who forever changed the way Americans eat, drink, sleep & travel by creating national restaurant chains (one right here at Union Station); western hotels; "Harvey Girls"; and Santa Fe style. Harvey even inspired an Oscar-winning movie with Judy Garland!
