Excerpt from Canoe and Camp Cookery: A Practical Cook Book for Canoeists, Corinthian Sailors and Outers

The writer of the above is a good housewife. She cannot conceive that anybody will attempt to boil green corn who does not know such rudiments of the culinary art as the proper quantity of water to put into the pot and the necessity of its being slightly salted and at a boil when the corn is put in, instead of fresh and cold and, like the careful cook that she is, she tells the camper to send the ears to the camp table in a napkin.

The faults of the above recipe are the faults of all recipes furnished by the majority of books on out door life. They do not instruct in those rudimentary principles of cooking so important to the outer who has eaten all his life no food except that furnished him ready for instant despatch; and they commend to the camper dishes that require materials and utensils for their preparation which are seldom at hand in the field and forest.
