New England food and drinks writer Corin Hirsch explores the origins and taste of the favorite potations of early Americans and offers some modern-day recipes to revive them today.
Colonial New England was awash in ales, beers, wines, cider and spirits. Everyone from teenage farmworkers to our founding fathers imbibed heartily and often. Tipples at breakfast, lunch, teatime and dinner were the norm, and low-alcohol hard cider was sometimes even a part of children's lives. This burgeoning cocktail culture reflected the New World's abundance of raw materials: apples, sugar and molasses, wild berries and hops. This plentiful drinking sustained a slew of smoky taverns and inns--watering holes that became vital meeting places and the nexuses of unrest as the Revolution brewed.

Описание: "We never choose our destiny. It chooses us." It's been five thousand years since the gods withdrew from the galaxy, leaving the men of each planet to rule themselves. For millennia, the worlds lived in relative harmony. But once again the order has been shaken. On Corin, a prince's courageous quest has released a ruthless demi-god that can bring the disgraced planet back to its former glory-or destroy it. On Earth, a young man is ripped across a universe he didn't know existed and inextricably tied to an ancient conflict that he can't begin to understand. And all the while, the immortal Siroco pursues his own mysterious ends. Who are the true heroes? Who is the Chosen One? Battles rage and families crumble in this second installment of Marvin Amazon's mythic fantasy series, where once again the lines of right and wrong blur around the individual experience, and even the best of intentions cannot control a galaxy on the brink of destruction.
