Not recipes per se, but there was an interesting article in Petits
Propos Culinaires (PPC), Issue 24, November 1986, by Joop Witteveen,
entitled "On Swans, Cranes and Herons: Part 1. Swans".
Witteveen examines the sources listing swans as food as to preparation
and service for England, the Netherlands, Italy, France, and Germany
during the Middle Ages. There are some 45+ footnotes that should give
someone a bit of reading!
