The author, George Geary, is a respected member of the culinary community and speaks at dozens of venues annually, in Southern California and beyond.
There is potential for a second volume of this engaging exploration into the origins of iconic dining establishments.
The featured restaurants are well-known across the country and, in some cases, internationally. Some examples include McDonald's, Taco Bell, Foster's Freeze, IHOP, Der Wienerschnitzel, See's Candy, and Jack in the Box.
George Geary has a sizable following of 32.5K on Twitter and is also present on other social media platforms, including Facebook.
Historic and contemporary photographs throughout the book add visual interest and a touch of nostalgia.
