Book Review from Publisher : 

Such a great cookbook! Filled with tips and carefully laid out, it was easy to read and plan with. I absolutely loved how Amelia carefully laid out within each recipe what to prep at home and what to prep at the campsite. Like others have said, it’s easy to just grab some hot dogs and call it good, so I’m excited to up my camping game with her yummy recipes.
