Dining car to the Pacific the "famously good" food of the Northern Pacific Railway
|
"William A. McKenzie offers an illustrated and detailed account of hospitality on the Northern Pacific - a service that many considered the best in the industry - drawing on sources ranging from railroad records of the 1860s to anecdotal accounts from the people who were there. In addition, McKenzie includes more than 150 authentic recipes used on the line, such as the Great Big Baked Potato, Washington Apple Pan Cake, and Northern Pacific Fruit Cake. Dining Car to the Pacific will be a treasured addition to the libraries of historians, cooks, and any one with nostalgia for the dinning car experience."--Jacket |
