Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring a new chapter on ten restaurants changing America today, a “fascinating . . . sweep through centuries of food culture” (Washington Post). Combining an historian’s rigor with a food enthusiast’s palate, Paul Freedman’s seminal and highly entertaining Ten Restaurants That Changed America reveals how the history of our restaurants reflects nothing less than the history of America itself. Whether charting the rise of our love affair with Chinese food through San Francisco’s fabled Mandarin; evoking the poignant nostalgia of Howard Johnson’s, the beloved roadside chain that foreshadowed the pandemic of McDonald’s; or chronicling the convivial lunchtime crowd at Schrafft’s, the first dining establishment to cater to women’s tastes, Freedman uses each restaurant to reveal a wider story of race and class, immigration and assimilation. “As much about the contradictions and contrasts in this country as it is about its places to eat” (The New Yorker), Ten Restaurants That Changed America is a “must-read” (Eater) that proves “essential for anyone who cares about where they go to dinner” (Wall Street Journal Magazine).

Book excerpt: Thoughts worth living for I am a visionary seeing the picture in my mind way in advance. I summon my imagination and all of its wonderful contents. My faith never wanes, even though wishes can take a while to materialize. Negativity seeks a way into my mind, using deceit, but I refute such thoughts. My dreams never fade. I always keep them in the back of my mind. I know a change will come because Im stubborn and persistent. Never am I discouraged by the time it takes for me to rendezvous with destiny. I am still for the Lord, waiting patiently for a rainbow to appear when I least expect it. Nothing stands in my way because I will circumvent any obstacle until I reach my utopia. Ill wait with patience and contentment for my innermost desires. I wont become a skeptic or doubtful of what is sure to come. I want my thoughts and all I am thinking to manifest into the physical world. You see, these thoughts are so magnificent that they alone are worth living for.
