Description -
Packed with lyrical prose, Oregon Trail diary entries, humorous tidbits, and delicious recipes, this is a gift book to treasure. The recipes span the decades from 1836 (missionary Narcissa Whitman's Camp Bread) to 1990 (great-grandson Steve Martin's Oregon Coast Mussels)--including prize casseroles, main dishes and desserts that fed hungry harvest crews, and simple breads and hearty soups.
