The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History presents
NEW ENGLAND PIE History Under A Crust
with Author & Historian Dr. Robert S. Cox


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

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.

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 signing to follow the presentation.
