This book offers the closest experience possible to stepping back in time. The vibrant downtown experience, celebrated throughout most of the 20th century, is captured through firsthand memories and stories, as well as from family journals, newspaper articles, and trade magazines. Over forty vintage images also help bring the past to life.
Shillito's provided a cosmopolitan environment for its patrons, while Mullane's was the perfect place to sip and socialize. The popular Good Morning Show radio program hosted by charming Bob Braun, and later Nick Clooney, was broadcast from McAlpin's Tea Room. Women gathered at Pogue's and Mabley & Carew tea rooms to celebrate birthdays, as well as wedding and baby showers, over dainty tea sandwiches. The author brings the Queen City's bygone downtown tea rooms back to life and shares more than one hundred beloved recipes.
