Comprised of some three hundred recipes ranging from the preparation of fowl and fish to the cooking of rabbit and venison, "The Everything Wild Game Cookbook" truly lives up to it title!

This review is from: The Everything Wild Game Cookbook: From Fowl And Fish to Rabbit And Venison--300 Recipes for Home-cooked Meals (Everything (Cooking)) (Paperback)

Cons: A lot of the recipes in the book have ingredients that are hard to find, there aren't too many images of the dishes being prepared, and the recipes are a bit complex to follow.

Pros: There's a brief introduction on preparing the meat while on the field and there are tips on marinating the meat and preparing other sides.

This book was given as a present to my son at Christmas and he immediately started sharing "words of wisdom" with us all. Very interesting recipes, easy to follow, excellent presentation as to "how to" and would recommend for a person's "go to" cookbook library.
