In many cases, the directions for the recipes are quite imprecise. I found this annoying until I came to the end of the book, where there is a comprehensive listing of the temperatures and times required for cooking various types of food. It is still a bit inconvenient to have to skip back and forth from the recipes to the listing of cooking times, but it is better than not having the times at all, especially for recipes which include raw meat. The author's rather shaky use of the English language does not inspire great confidence. Sometimes one has to guess what is meant. I am a bit put out by the author's instructions to start a fire with lighter fluid, but perhaps this is just a personal prejudice on my part. I would have preferred to see instructions on fire-starting that did not include lighter fluid, but maybe that's just me.
