Descrizione

223 pages. Index. Reference notes. Illustrated in colour and black and white. "Architectural critic Philip Langdon offers an affectionate and lavishly illustrated history of the architecture, design, and decor of American chain restaurants from the 1870s to the standardised eateries found in every corner of the globe today. Illuminates the appeal of restaurant chains and their influence on the character of the towns we live in. Illustrated with over 150 photographs (70 in full colour), paintings, architectural renderings, floor plans and even postcards, this lively and stylish work will be of interest to social historians, design students, connoisseurs of style, and anyone who's ever ordered a Big Mac or french fries to take out." - from dust jacket. Usual library markings. Above-average but not excessive wear. Binding partially open at half-title page. Back hinge open. Front endpaper neatly removed. A worthy reference copy. Book
