Author Notes: While the collection of recipes in this book for the most part is hardly authentic cowboy fare, it is fun for retro food and 50’s nostalgia buffs. This book, like all the books in Collector’s Press’ Retro series, is designed in classic 50s retro style with full color artwork and photographs. And while some of the fare might be considered “cowboy cooking,” the rest still has that retro 50s diner feel that so fits the overall design and feel of the book. Campers of all generations, however, will appreciate the wide variety of Dutch oven recipes, along with detailed instructions and tips for using a Dutch oven.
