There are 50 restaurants described in this book telling about some historic buildings in Pennsylvania. Many of these places are still operating as restaurants. Each has its story told, a black and white drawing and some recipes. All except 8 are in the southeast corner of the state, so geographically it does not cover the whole area very well. Addresses, phone numbers and hours are given. Since this book was written in 1986 one should definitely call and try to look up on the internet for current information. The recipes are interesting. My family enjoys duck and there was an excellent recipe for Dobbin House's roast duck Adams County. There was a very questionable crab cake recipe that contained 1 lb. of crab but also included a large diced tomato, 1 cup of bread crumbs and 4 slices of bread, 4 slices of cheese. I wonder how you ever would have known it was a crab cake to taste the crab. There are some other recipes that you could find elsewhere, lasagna chocolate mousse, stuffed mushrooms. Still, this is a book for those who enjoy history and recipes and some of the interesting buildings which also happen to be restaurants.

Winner of the 2011 Willie Parker Peace Prize from the N.C. Society of Historians, and Finalist for the Ben Franklin Award in History. In the spring of 1865, Federal major general George Stoneman launched a cavalry raid deep into the heart of the Confederacy. Over the next two months, Stoneman's cavalry rode across six Southern states, fighting fierce skirmishes and destroying supplies and facilities. When the raid finally ended, Stoneman's troopers had brought the Civil War home to dozens of communities that had not seen it up close before. In the process, the cavalrymen pulled off one of the longest cavalry raids in U.S. military history. Despite its geographic scope, Stoneman's 1865 raid failed in its primary goal of helping to end the war. Instead, the destruction the raiders left behind slowed postwar recovery in the areas it touched. In their wake, the raiders left a legacy that resonates to this day, even in modern popular music such as The Band's ''The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down.'' Based on exhaustive research in 34 repositories in 12 states and from more than 200 books and newspapers, Hartley's book tells the complete story of Stoneman's 1865 raid for the first time.
