Historian Edward Field's lively and informative examination of American colonial taverns and inns sheds light on the social life of towns and villages in the 1600s and 1700s. Writing at the end of the 19th century, Field makes use of a variety of sources that mention the tavern and its role. It is apparent that inns were the central hub of activity in the villages and small townships that constituted colonial North America. Many laws were drafted as to the proper running of these bars, and the tavern keeper was a profession with standards refined over the course of decades. The conduct of citizens was a concern; while noting how taverns had positive effects in building community spirit in localities, some colonial officials legislated against public drunkenness and disorder. The everyday functions of the tavern are brought to life by Field, who appends order lists for food and drink supplies, and stories concerning various inns. We gain an impression of colonial life, how whole towns became established with inns at their centre, a gathering place for local folk of all description. Some tavern keepers were accomplished businessmen; as well as managing their accounts and supplies, and keeping order on the more raucous evenings, they arranged entertainments and events to keep customers joyful and satisfied.

Architecture And Town Planning In Colonial North America written by James D. Kornwolf and has been published by JHU Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2002 with Architecture categories.
Incorporating more than 3,000 illustrations, Kornwolf's work conveys the full range of the colonial encounter with the continent's geography, from the high forms of architecture through formal landscape design and town planning. From these pages emerge the fine arts of environmental design, an understanding of the political and economic events that helped to determine settlement in North America, an appreciation of the various architectural and landscape forms that the settlers created, and an awareness of the diversity of the continent's geography and its peoples. Considering the humblest buildings along with the mansions of the wealthy and powerful, public buildings, forts, and churches, Kornwolf captures the true dynamism and diversity of colonial communities - their rivalries and frictions, their outlooks and attitudes - as they extended their hold on the land.

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.

'Twas Honest old Noah first planted the Vine And mended his morals by drinking its Wine. —from a drinking song by Benjamin Franklin There were, Peter Thompson notes, some one hundred and fifty synonyms for inebriation in common use in colonial Philadelphia and, on the eve of the Revolution, just as many licensed drinking establishments. Clearly, eighteenth-century Philadelphians were drawn to the tavern. In addition to the obvious lure of the liquor, taverns offered overnight accommodations, meals, and stabling for visitors. They also served as places to gossip, gamble, find work, make trades, and gather news. In Rum Punch and Revolution, Thompson shows how the public houses provided a setting in which Philadelphians from all walks of life revealed their characters and ideas as nowhere else. He takes the reader into the cramped confines of the colonial bar room, describing the friendships, misunderstandings and conflicts which were generated among the city's drinkers and investigates the profitability of running a tavern in a city which, until independence, set maximum prices on the cost of drinks and services in its public houses. Taverngoing, Thompson writes, fostered a sense of citizenship that influenced political debate in colonial Philadelphia and became an issue in the city's revolution. Opinionated and profoundly undeferential, taverngoers did more than drink; they forced their political leaders to consider whether and how public opinion could be represented in the counsels of a newly independent nation.
