Produktbeschreibung
In the 1950's, Diners became a staple just like Grandma's apple pie. As they grew and dotted the American landscape, they took on a life all their own. A gathering place where a farmer in bib overalls could sit on a red stool with the President of the Bank and have a simple hamburger and shake. A place where one could hear the newest gossip, current events or just 'hang out and listen to the jukebox and have a soda' with the next generation. War, the Depression, significant inventions and innovations of the Industrial Revolution brought about many cultural changes. Diners, however, continued to be an integral part of communities and rural America for decades to come. Many Forever Friends and Forever Loves developed in Diners and some spanned decades. Sandy's seventh book takes the reader into some of those Diners and the cats who lived and loved the residents within.
