Read the excerpt from david crockett: his life and adventures by john s. c. abbott. the table was often a large slab of timber, hewn out with a broad-axe, and supported by four stakes driven into auger-holes. the table furniture consisted of a few pewter dishes, with wooden plates and bowls. there were generally a few pewter spoons, much battered about the edges, but most of the spoons were of horn, homemade. crockery, so easily broken, was almost unknown. table knives were seldom seen. the deficiency was made up by the hunting-knives which all the men carried in sheaths attached to their hunting-shirts. what does the setting in this excerpt reveal about the culture of its people? the beauty of frontier homes the importance of manners a lack of sophistication a love for family traditions

a lack of sophistication

The description here is written with beautiful imagery. However, it only describes the lack of sophistication. The table is simply a "slab of timber" made with an axe that is held up by four stakes. The dishes and silverware are simple and homemade. They do not have anything that a person of this time period might consider sophisticated. It goes on to explain that the men use their hunting knives since there are no other knives. The description does make frontier life out to be rather idyllic, but it doesn't actually describe the frontier home. It also doesn't say anything about manners or family traditions.
