Wind, water, and the ages created the Grand Canyon, but the Fred Harvey Company and the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway made the Canyon the popular attraction it was and remains to this day. Their illustrated books, pamphlets, folios, menus, postcards, playing cards, time tables, calendars, and even matchbook covers evoke vivid images of the joys and adventure of the journey through a previously remote world. See all that and more in this highly visual celebration of Fred Harvey and Santa Fe Railroad history and artifacts. Fred Harvey and his eponymous company have left an imprint on the Southwest in innumerable ways, from the iconic thunderbird logo, to families established in towns along the tracks, to Native American enterprises, and, above all, to the visitor experience at its centerpiece, the Grand Canyon.
