Sorted by style of cooking ie. stick, dutch oven, pie etc. Even with a general lack of photos the simple recipes and ingredient lists had me thinking "why didn't I think of that." From snacks to a full meal, there were several options for adults and kid-friendly.

This was a good book. Informative and interesting. I loved the varied recipes and cooking techniques. Great for the first-timer and easy to understand. This was written well (although I did find a few discrepancies), easy to understand instructions, colorful (though there aren't any pictures), quick intros to each new technique and easy-going. I don't think I'll try all the recipes but there were quite a few that made me think...Now why didn't I think of that!?. Great for anytime reading and getting a few fun and yummy ideas for that camping trip or barbecue in the backyard. Enjoy!
