"Built to Last: 100+ Year-Old Hotels East of the Mississippi" is a
sequel to my 2011 book, "Built To Last: 100+ Year-Old Hotels in New
York." It has 86 chapters, one for each century-old hotel (of 50
rooms or more) east of the Mississippi River and each is
illustrated by an antique postcard. The Foreword was written by
Joseph McInerney, CHA, President of the American Hotel &
Lodging Association. The book has been accepted for promotion,
distribution and sale by the American Hotel & Lodging
Educational Institute. My research into the histories of these
hotels turned up fascinating stories about single-minded
developers, brilliant and accidental architects, dedicated owners,
famous and infamous guests and even the story of an underground
bunker-shelter the size of two football fields built under a hotel
to house the U.S. Government in the event of a nuclear war.
