Excerpt from Ross Grant Gold Hunter Talking and thinking about it. The altitude and life in the open gives a fellow the appetite of a bear! I have eaten cold corn fritters in a miners' boarding-house and found them more appetizing than porterhouse steak in a' Broadway hotel. You might, as the Toddler would put it, eat till you bust one hour and be just as hungry the next. And, furthermore, for two reasons, it's not the women who discuss recipes, but the men. The first reason is, there are not enough women there to do much discussing, and the second is as good every man must be his own cook or starve. There fore, look out in the next book for further extensive references to rustling grub. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
