Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Petite Histoire de France: Depuis les Temps les Plus Recules Jusqu'a Nos Jours
La Gaule ne marqua pas moins dans l'art de tisser et de brocher les etoffes; ses teintures actaient pas sans reputation. En agriculture, elle imagina la charrue a roues, le crible de crin et l'emploi de la marne comme amendement. Les Gaulois composaient diverses sortes de boissons fermentees, telles que la biere d'orge et la biere de froment melee d'hydromel. Bien qu'ils eussent peu de vin, on leur attribuait l'invention des tonneaux propres a le conserver.
