perfect gift

We combined this book with a brand new sleeping bag and some camping equipment. Really made a nice birthday gift. Arrived in plenty of time. Thank you.

Not only basic but for the experinced also

I am not a big fan of Cliff , but having said that, this book is one of his best. Many great tips are given and will keep food on the table/lap on those long trips. Good to have in your outdoor collection.

A Good Amount of Unique Information

Although I found a lot of this book to be useful, I was most impressed with the author's system to conserve fuel and speed cooking time while cooking outdoors in colder climates.

great basic book

This is a great basic book 70 page book on this subject. I have about 10 different books on camp cooking, and this one covers many areas of outdoor cooking including camp stoves, fire making, selecting the right pots and pans. How to pack lightly is covered as well as sources to find things. Then there are the recipes which all work great and tste delicious. The writer has a homey style that is very comfortable to read, kind of like an old friend or uncle explaining things to you. The book is affordable. The interior illustrations are nice too.
