When I first saw this book, I thought "you have to be kidding", but the author has the subject nailed down tight. The book is divided into sections based on the length of your trip and the types of food suitable for the duration. She has a clear understanding of nutritional issues. The techniques for food drying, blending and preparation prior to the trip are invaluable. This book has changed the way I travel on rivers and live out of my boat while doing so. Highly recommended for those interested in the subject.

I purchased this book prior to our first Family Kayak Camping trip. With 2 kids ages 5 and 6, my hubby and I wanted to make sure we were truly prepared. The book was pertinent and entertaining, and really helped our trip be a huge success. We are now looking toward to longer trips with really good food!

I found this book very usefull. Although it was written with sea kayaks in mind, it will be very usefull for our flatwater camping. It was very informative on breaking down ingredients and packing foods. Cold and dry. How long to store them, and my favorate chapter on how to dry foods in your oven. A very usefull book.

Linda Daniel is a master at organizing and writing a cookbook that actually works. Her ideas for packing your kayak and the dishes you can prepare are wonderful for both the beginner and the experianced kayaker. Additionally, this book is filled with great recipe ideas for the camper, backpacker and also for preparing your emergency supplies. Kayak Cookery is enjoyable just for the read. My compliments and gratitude to Ms. Daniel.
