This review is from: The Riversong Lodge Cookbook: World-Class Cooking in the Alaskan Bush (Hardcover)

Living in Alaska I am drawn to try various Alaska cook books and this one is outstanding. There is an awesome recipe for "Pepper Relish" that my husband and his friends beg me to make. In fact friends have bought there own copies of the book becouse I wont loan it out. I've got sticky notes all throught the book with my own reviews and temtations! Its Simple to read and easy to understand recipes. These arent the copied versions of foods you have had before, and she writes a jounal throughout the book to make you feel as if your a guest at her lodge. I hope to find more of her recipes! You will love this very interesting and well written cook book!

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent read and a good cookbook., January 14, 1999

This review is from: The Riversong Lodge Cookbook: World-Class Cooking in The Alaskan Bush (Paperback)

A friend of mine gave me this cookbook when she came back from Alaska and it is one of the best cookbooks that I have read. The recipes are all very good but the stories of Chef Dixon and her life in Alaska is wonderful. Even if you don't cook you will love this book. Kirsten Dixon seems to me as being a cross between Julia Child and Jack London. She is someone you should watch for.
