Combining archaeological analysis with historical research, Peter E. Pope examines the way of life that developed in 17th-century Newfoundland, where settlement was sustained by seasonal migration to the cod fishery. The unregulated English settlements that grew up around the exchange of fish for wine catered to nascent consumer demand.
