This instalment complements the previous video "Privations of an 18th Century Soldier." It examines a number of historical references and considers how soldiers of the time prepared their meat rations when supplies and equipment were scarce or unavailable. It also looks at the important role salt played in not only the preservation of meat but also in the strategies of war. Http://jas-towsend.com

  • I really liked this, you guys should add more anecdotal tid bits in your up coming cooking episodes. What are the fiddle tunes in the background, is the artist available on iTunes?

  • @3mate1 Thank you for your compliments and comments, Yes, we are preparing our new series of videos and we do plan on adding more historic anecdotes and notes whenever possible. The music on these videos is done by Hillary and Rick Wagner aka Jim's Red Pants, I don't know about iTunes but some of their CD's are available on our website. Thanks! Jon

  • Hey Jastown, I wanted to do a Civil war early war impression and I wanted to use a continental hat like yours, where did you get it? If you can, please tell me the most in-expensive price. (Ill take used)

  • you need to make a video cookbook love your videos

  • keep it up.

  • Wow, love the history of our troops and the items you sale. Bought your Soldier's Spice pack to use with my camping gear and its one the best pieces of equipment I have!

  • You folks are so wonderful and you go so far above and beyond the basics of merchandising. I can think of no other merchants who provide such entertainment and education alongside good products. It's so lovely to see such passion for history.

  • another good video

  • You fellows hit the nail on the head with videos such as this!! Keep up the good work....

  • Hey wait a minute..... you tried to teach me something :-)

    God Bless
