Description
Here you have a glimpse into the kitchen of the officers' mess at Fort Atkinson in Fort Calhoun, Nebraska. This military fort which was only active for a short period in the 1820's has been carefully reconstructed for the enjoyment of today's visitors. Each month from May through October a dedicated group of "Friends of Fort Atkinson" dress in period appropriate clothing and bring that time in America's history to life. The day this photo was taken, women were preparing the noon meal for the fort commander and his guests.
