camp cooking, 100 years

This is a great Book. I can not say CookBook because it is so much more. It contains stories of hardtimes and greattimes, of good food and friends. The recipes are good too ! And best of all it's at a great price so you can see why I think it's a GREAT Book !!!

History buffs!

Not what I was expecting. There are some great recipes, but the real appeal of this book is the history. The photos and stories alone make it worth the price. Warning! If you aren't cooking for a large group you'll have to scale down a lot of the recipes.

A Must Have

Absolutely the best camp cookbook I have had yet. Recipes are simple and easy to understand. Ingredients can all be found at any supermarket, even small ones. The breakfast section alone is worth the price of the book.(These cooks really liked a big breakfast) The book is durable and there are enough recipes to last the average camper years before having to repeat a meal. Most meals will feed 4 to 6 easily and the additional stories, tips and photos are a great bonus!

Just what I was looking for

I ordered 4 different camp cook books and this one I like the best. Recipes seem easy enough for camping from the Campers Omelette to Enchilada Pie, and lots of desserts. Even a recipe for backpacking bars in the back of the book that look like they would be a hit. A little history through out the book interesting pictures. Great Camp Book. Wish I had bought this one first.

Great Ideas!

This book offers some interesting background and stories plus lots of great recipes - mainly for dutch ovens but also for skillet cooking.

The National Museum of Forest Service History presents a charming cookbook that celebrates decades of camp cooking by countless Forest Service agents in the field. Featuring legendary recipes for Dutch oven meals, open-fire dishes, and other tasty outdoor specialties used daily in the early days of the Forest Service, Camp Cooking: 100 Years has dozens of recipes, photos, and anecdotes that tell the whole history of these brave and hardy individuals. Dedicated ranger's wives prepared meals with limited resources as they accompanied their husbands in the field, often supplementing cooking with k-rations cooked over an open fire. In rustic and remote locations, delicious, time-tested creations were prepared and served, including Dutch Oven Beer Bread, Parmesan Mashed Potatoes, Pioneer Night Stew, and Creamy Pumpkin Pie.
