Abstract:
Celebration of America’s two hundredth anniversary included reliving a special part of US history. To help celebrants virtually step back in time were re-enactments of Colonial lifeways. It ranged from domestic chores such as cooking to clothes-making, from meal staples such as apple cider and corn, from entertainment such as Cock Fight and marbles. The history lesson learned: there were more commonalities than differences between the distant past and the present.
