The All American Cowboy Cookbook - Home Cooking on the Range by Ken Beck & Jim Clark offers over 300 recipes from the world's greatest cowboys. What a find! This book is full of the photos of so many cowboys (and a few cowgirls too!) along with information about them, quotes, recipes, memories and more. You'll spend hours going through it.
The book itself has a nicely done softcover with comb binding so the pages will stay open while you read or prepare a dish. It has the look of tooled leather and has a few photos of some famous cowboys on the cover. It is divided into several sections including:
