Higbee's well-known Silver Grille is remembered in this volume, which takes the reader back to a time when shopping in Cleveland meant a trip to Public Square and to Higbee's. The book includes 83 familiar recipes from The Silver Grille, including the popular Welsh rarebit and the restaurant's famous muffins. While the cherished restaurant no longer serves children their meals in mini-ovens or hosts shoppers who stopped in for a respite from their daily browsing, its meals and memories live on for Clevelanders in the latest book from Cleveland Landmarks Press.

The sequel to Cleveland Landmarks Press' best-selling book of 2000, The Silver Grille: Memories and Recipes, by Richard E. Karberg, Judith Karberg, and Jane Hazen, The Higbee Company and The Silver Grille: More Memories, More Recipes takes readers on a floor-by-floor tour of the famous Higbee Company department store at its apex - in 1956. Higbee's then had just completed its first major store renovation, and suburban shopping malls had yet to dominate the local Cleveland retail scene. Readers can relive and remember the meticulous displays, the upscale merchandise, and the incredible amenities with 86 illustrations and old advertisements. And, the book provides 34 more original Silver Grille recipes, dishes that made the downtown restaurant the special dining experience that Greater Clevelanders remember so fondly. Joe Crea, The Plain Dealer's Foods and Restaurants Editor, adds to the new book with an introduction as well.

Today, the Cleveland metro area regularly ranks as one of the top ten most racially segregated urban areas in the country. Yet, a few communities in Greater Cleveland stand out as national models of racial diversity, and Cleveland Heights stands out among them. How did it happen?\nResisting Segregation traces the courage, dedication, and resilience of grass root activists who waged a fight to transform Cleveland Heights from an exclusive, all\-white suburb into an inclusive, diverse community. The book documents how Cleveland Heights citizens challenged a seemingly insurmountable social problem: the lack of housing opportunities for African Americans.\nIn 1964, a group of white women, inspired by the national civil rights movement, joined with black citizens – leaders and visionaries – to fight for racial equality and open up Cleveland Heights for all. Over the next 12 years, community activists lobbied city government to welcome integration and fought federal and state policies, resistant realtors, widespread racism, and hostile neighbors who enforced segregation. They worked as opponents bombed their homes and realtors preyed on homeowners’ fears through blockbusting.\nIn the end, they created long\-standing organizations and changed city government to forever shape the future of Cleveland Heights. They transformed a virtually all\-white suburb into an enduring, integrated community with a vibrant civic culture. Resisting Segregation is a must\-read for anyone interested in the evolution of this unique community and for those looking for a path forward toward greater racial justice.\nProduced by local Northeast Ohio publisher Cleveland Landmarks Press, the book demonstrates how citizen activism works, how people can fight systemic racism, and how our communities can improve with a commitment to racial equity.
