By A Customer
This review is from: The Civil War Cookbook (Hardcover)
Mr. Davis has compiled an excellent and beautiful book of the recipes of an anguished time. You will certainly get a taste of the simple foods that so many families relied on when there was little to be had. Whether you are a reenactor or a food history buff, this book will take you into the kitchens of the homes and armies of the Civil War.

Civil War Cookery, May 2, 2000
This review is from: The Civil War Cookbook (Hardcover)
Simple foods from a by gone era that are easy to prepare, and interesting to learn about while cooking. This cookbook gives the average reader a flare for more homespun tastes.
This book includes not only authentic recipes, but the background on the style and variations of many of them.
Very informative and enjoyable to read.
