Chock full of recipes with step-by-step directions for kids to follow, this series is a unique way for kids to eat their way through American history. Many modern historians think the history of mankind is not to be found solely in the decisions of rulers and battles won or lost, but in the lives of everyday people. Looking closely at the environment, economics, eating habits, and favorite foods of our American forebears teaches us volumes about their world and ours. Delicious recipes for hasty pudding, Dutch walnut-cinnamon squares, and hoppin' john will draw your kids into the history of the thirteen British colonies, touching on the variety of cultural influences, from Dutch to German to African.
