While I can't be certain if this material is free content, as The Wall Street Journal's site "knows" my computer, but this review of the Fred Harvey restaurant chain published Saturday may generate some interest in the book around here:

The most "telling" brief passage from the review:
- When Judy Garland played an onscreen Harvey Girl in 1946, the movie was a great success, and one of its songs, "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe," became a No. 1 hit. There were hopes that the movie might somehow spark a revival in the Fred Harvey fortunes, but by then another hospitality genius was on the scene, and Howard Johnson had set up shop beside the nation's highways.
