176pp, copiously illustrated in colour and black and white. In black cloth-covered boards with gilt titles on spine. Square 8vo. Cloth very slightly rounded at spine tips else neat, clean, tight and bright throughout. In its original dust jacket, lightly bumped along upper edge. Passengers who dined on the Baltimore and Ohio railway during the heyday of American railroading had a five star service with white tablecloths, china and silver settings; food cooked from the finest ingredients from scratch; and the individual attention of skilled waiting staff. B&O’s cuisine won awards and acclaim as the finest railway food in the world. Captivated by the romance of the subject, Greco and Spence combine many of the B&O’s best recipes with historical photos to capture the elegance and charm of the dining car experience.
