The Raw and the Cooked: Adventures of a Roving Gourmand

(From the back cover) Mario Batali said of this writer "Jim Harrison is the Homer, the Michelangelo, the Lamborghini, the Willie Mays, the Secretariat of words...his words are the lust-filled poems of an expert, a hunter, an eater."

This is a guy's book of hunting, cooking, eating, and name dropping of famous people (he is also a screenwriter for Hollywood). A very different kind of "food" book!
