Tales of the Sturgeon in Philadelphia’s Culinary Past (2015)

In this paper we will explore the history of the sturgeon in the Philadelphia area from colonial times to the present to...

While useful, these approaches risk flattening pre/historic subsistence strategies to the point of timelessness and minimizing the social and cultural...
