"If you have just gone out on the tundra and shot a reindeer, and are looking madly for a recipe by which to cook it, this little book is meant for you!
"If you have just been down with an aqua-lung, spear-fishing in shark-infested waters, and have brought up some succulent shark fins under your spare arm, please turn to page 46!
"If you have just been climbing teak trees, and need a recipe for brewing bird’s nest soup, flip over these pages and you will be a happy gal!"
Front and back covers of a 62-page cookbook, compiled by Edna Beilenson, illustrated by Ruth McCrea, and published by Peter Pauper Press, Mt. Vernon, New York.
