Reprinted July 2010 by popular demand Throughout history, the
development of the meat trade has been dependent upon and
interrelated with the social, commercial and economic development
of the community at large. This fascinating book, of interest to
those involved in the meat and associated industries and to social
historians, traces the history of man in respect of the utilisation
and consumption of meat. It considers the progress towards the
domestication of meat animals after the last ice age and the
importance of domestic animals for their meat and other products in
the development of the early civilisations, and looks at the part
played by the meat trade in relation to the growth of urbanisation
and the marketing structures that emerged. DERRICK RIXSON,
following a career as a family butcher, joined the staff of
Smithfield College, London, where he taught for 25 years. Latterly
he has been involved in zooarchaeology, processing bones from
archaeological sites, and is the author or several other books.
