Taste of the Gunflint Trail: Stories and Recipes from the Lodges as Shared by the Women of the Gunflint Trail
Author: Women of the Gunflint Trail
Northeastern Minnesota's Gunflint Trail area, a rugged and remote place, has been home to a great number of incredible women. These pioneering women worked side-by-side with parents, spouses and neighbor friends to clear roads, build cabins and operate successful resorts and outfitters. In addition to meeting the demands of owning and running businesses, most also did all the resort's laundry, cooked for guests and raised a family. For better than half of the Trail's history, all this was accomplished without the benefit of electricity and running water.
This is a real taste of what life was like on the Gunflint Trail, and how it's changed with time. Read women's stories about wildlife encounters, driving the winding Trail, raising kids and surviving winter in the wilderness. A Taste of the Gunflint Trail captures the history and spirit of these unfettered women, the place they love and their hearty recipes.

The Barbecue America CookBook has been acclaimed by critics nationwide for its fresh, fun, and authentic approach to America's oldest cooking style. People magazine called it "An awesome homage to backyard cuisine," Regis Philbin describes co-author Rick Browhe, Ph.B. (Doctor of Barbecue Philosophy), as "one of America's leading barbecue experts," and Time magazine offered: "Here's all the culture, the competitions, the characters, plus more than 100 of the dangdest barbecue recipes ever." The Barbecue America CookBook and its twin, the PBS 13-part TV Beries Barbecue America, celebrate the diversity of the nation's various regional barbecue styles, take readers and viewers to barbecue Meccas around the country, and, most important, teach people how to "cook up great Que" at home. The Barbecue America CookBook is an American gastronomic travelogue, mouthwatering in appeal, and both informative and innovative in its sharing of regional barbecue recipes and techniques with backyard barbecuers from coast to coast, celebrating the diversity of the nation's various regional barbecue styles. The Barbecue America CookBook happily shares all the pageantry and homespun humor of the contests and places that make up the varied (and flavorful) world of smoking and grilling food -- and includes more than 100 recipes for the best barbecue that ever slipped between your lips. In many parts of the country, barbecue isn't just a way of cooking -- it's a way of life. We present to you here our journey into its heartland.
