Just saw this notice for the Rail Readers Book Club in Las Cruces, NM, who will be discussing Appetite for America over the next two months!

Wish I could be there (although I’ll reach out to them and see if I can join the conversation by phone–which I’m available to do for other book groups who want to talk Fred.)

The Rail Readers Book Club meets at the Las Cruces Railroad Museum on the 2nd Wednesday of each month at 11:00 am. On January 12, 2011, we will discuss Part I of “Appetite for America”. This biography of Fred Harvey was written by Stephen Fried, who obtained exclusive access to many Harvey family documents. Fred Harvey was much more than a man – he built an empire that had lasting impact on many aspects of life in America today.

Part II will be discussed in February.

Please R.S.V.P. by calling 647-4480. The museum is located at 351 N. Mesilla Street, at the intersection of Las Cruces Ave.
