In-N-out Burger by Stacy Perman
In fast-food America, In-N-Out Burger stands apart. Begun in a tiny shack in the shadow of World War II, this family-owned chain has steadfastly refused to franchise or be sold. Over time, In-N-Out Burger has become a cultural institution that can lay claim to an insanely loyal following. In-N-Out Burger is a keenly observed narrative that explores the evolution of a fad that transformed into an enduring cult of popularity; it is also the story of the secretive, and ultimately tragic Snyder family who cooked a billion burgers. As the story of In-N-Out Burger unfolds, so too does the cultural history of America as influenced and shaped by car culture and fast food.
