Fast Food: Roadside Restaurants in the Automobile Age Hardcover - 1999

by John A. Jakle; Keith A. Sculle; Keith A. Sculle (Joint Author)


From the publisher

Eating on the run in America has a long history, but it was the automobile that accelerated quick service and created a whole new category of food. The rise of car culture brought an explosion of roadside restaurants which served sandwiches and fried foods meant to be consumed quickly and easily, usually with the fingers: hot dogs, fried chicken and the pre-eminent roadside food, hamburgers with french fries.

First line

We begin by asking our readers to indulge some personal reminiscing and some preliminary defining of key concepts.
