A Culinary History of Delmarva: From the Bay to the Sea

By Curtis Badger

Book Overview

Taste the cultural traditions of the Delmarva Peninsula, where history and food come together to reflect the intense relationship that its people have with both land and sea.

For centuries, dating back to the time of the Native Americans, the fertile soils and the bountiful bays and salt marshes of Delmarva have fed its people well. Over the generations its food culture has become intertwined with the history of the people who call this land home. Food determined where people lived, how they traveled, how their economy functioned, and how they celebrated and shared the products of soil and salt water.

Local author and avid outdoorsman Curtis Badger fleshes out this history with recipes based on seasonal bounty.
