Description
Do you want to have more fun when you teach history?
In our house, we love to cook and bake to learn history. We time travel right in the kitchen.
Here is our American History Cookbook. We use it in our home and in our American history co-op. Everyone loves it! Each family takes a week to make a meal from Colonial Times, The Alamo, The Transcontinental Railroad, The Gilded Age, or World War II – whatever we were studying. Some of the recipes are adapted from original recipes from old history cookbooks and famous recipe collections.
Each section begins with a history review of events and people along with information about foods and eating habits of the time period. Also included in this unique cookbook are resources (living books, movies, sample menus) after each section of recipes.
