Paperback. Etat : New. Originally published in 1904, Commanders of the Dining Room features brief biographies of more than fifty African American head waiters and front-of-house restaurant staff, giving insight into the traditions and personalities that shaped these culinary institutions. Maccannon, himself an African American and a former head waiter, also offers a brief portrait of the Head and Second Waiters' National Benefit Association (a union for the industry and for African American hotel workers). Though the HSWNBA was formed in Chicago and held conventions there, many of the waiters profiled in this book hail from southern restaurants. Maccannon published Commanders to increase the visibility and stature of Black waiters; to assure employers that they could count on members of the HSWNBA to thoroughly know their business; to attest to their commitment to be dependable workers; and to showcase model African American manhood. In the vein of Booker T. Washington, Commanders proclaimed to young waiters that they could achieve success if they educated themselves, worked hard, and joined an association like the HSWNBA. In Commanders they could see head waiters, at the pinnacle of the profession, who had started out at the bottom and worked their way to the top, overcoming a variety of challenges along the way. …

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of a profession within the hospitality industry. It traces the development of head waiters in the dining rooms of American hotels from the mid-1800s to the early 1900s. It examines the roles played by African American men within this profession and how, often trained in the skills of good service through their work, they became instrumental in raising standards within the industry. The book also discusses the establishment of the Head, Second and Side Waiters National Benefit Association in 1899, an organization founded to train the men in their profession and promote their advancement in the industry. Through the stories of several prominent head waiters and their contributions to the profession, the book highlights how African American waiters were often the backbone of the dining room service in the leading hotels of the time.
