Known as the “Civilizer of the West,” Fred Harvey developed the concept of fast food, created the first chain restaurant, and revolutionized American travel. And he did it 50 years before Route 66 even existed. Roger talks to his guest Kathy Weir, who shares a wealth of information about the Harvey Company, architect Mary Colter, and those fabulous Harvey Girls.

It’s a journey that stretches along the Santa Fe Railway to Grand Canyon and back to the Mother Road. Tune in for this delicious chapter of travel history.
