BREWSTER, MA The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History in Brewster
continues its popular <i>Putting it on the Table</i> local food series
with <i>New England Pie, History Under A Crust </i>presented by author
and historian, Robert S. Cox <b>Saturday, November 14, 2015 at 1pm.<br>

Pie has been a delectable centerpiece of Yankee tables since Europeans
first landed on New England’s shores in the seventeenth century. With a
satisfying variety of savory and sweet, author Robert Cox takes a bite
out of the history of pie and pie-making in the region. From the
crackling topmost crust to the bottom layer, explore the origin and
evolution of popular ingredients like the Revolutionary roots of the
Boston cream. Join Dr. Cox as he explores the history of New England pie
one month at a time, celebrating the seasonal fixings that fill New
Englanders’ favorite dessert from apple and cherry to pumpkin and
squash. <br>
<br>
Rob Cox is head of Special Collections and University Archives at UMass
Amherst, an archive that specializes in the history of social change and
the histories of New England including the history of food in our
region. As an historian, he has written on American religious
movements, Quakers and Native Americans, and New England's foods. Book
