„Although this is annoying, when the action gets slow you can amuse yourelf by counting them. Yet all said and done, this is a fun piece of candy-floss to while away a couple of hours on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Just don't go looking for any eternal verities. Or even temporary ones.“

„The Motel In America explores the effect on American culture as citizens became motorists. The popularity of motels grew steadily throughout the century, booming after World War II, and reaching a peak in 1961 with over 61,000 motels operating throughout the country with the vast majority of them independently owned, introducing Americans to consumer novelties like color televisions, automatic coffee makers, shag rugs, and residential swimming polls. By the 1980s the number had dropped to around 40,000 with most of them affiliated with referral and franchise chains, reflecting the traveler's need for uniform quality and the entrepreneur's desire for regional or national recognition. The Motel In America is a comprehensive history from autocamp to franchise, illustrating much that is central to the American experience.“

„Did you know that coffeehouses helped spawn the French and American revolutions? Or that coffee supplanted alcohol as a favorite breakfast drink in Britain in the late 1600s, and later became a patriotic American beverage after the Boston Tea Party? Pendergrast also details the rise and fall of regional coffee brands in the United States, the role of advertising in the industry, the global economic impact of coffee prices, and the recent emergence of specialty-coffee retailers--Starbucks, for example. Finally, he explores the social and environmental ramifications of coffee and highlights recent attempts to encourage a livable wage and environmental protection in coffee-producing nations such as Brazil.“
