Excerpt from Food Products From Afar: A Popular Account of Fruits and Other Foodstuffs From Foreign LandsThe aborigine set up his tent where the mountain brook splashed into the lake or near the trail of the forest deer, the easier to obtain his daily food. The early settlements were located at fords or at the junc tion of beaten paths where folk stopped to buy and sell produce. Cities sprang up at the country cross roads, because there the farmer met the merchant that they might barter with one another. To-day our nation stands at the intersection of the world's trade-routes and we may take toll of all the earth's food-stores.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
