The New England Country Tavern

New England taverns - as plentiful in the countryside as omnipresent white-steepled meetinghouses - served as the main gateway to a widening world of travel, commerce, communication, and socialization. In New England Country Tavern, drawing upon the Village's vast collections of early artifacts and years of research, Chief Historian Jack Larkin takes a look at the important role that gathering places played in directing the communal affairs of a new young nation. His journey is one of discovery and excitement, of gaining a greater understanding of a history we have long taken for granted.  Product Details: Pages: 58 pages Published By: Old Sturbridge Village Author: Jack Larkin Dimensions: approx. 8" x 0.25" x 8" Paperback New England topic
