My grandmother was a Harvey Girl, thus, my mother thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. It's provided much nostalgia for her, especially reading about some of the people who used to visit her family!

This book explains what the Harvey Girls did for the west. It tells what their duties were and the cup code. It is an easy read and is even good for children as young as first grade.
