Food on the Prairie

I doubt that I'm the only person who gets hungry watching (or reading) Little House on the Prairie. Thankfully, the fine folks at Little House recognized the need for quality recipes to accompany the much beloved stories.
The Little House Cookbook: Frontier Foods from Laura Ingalls Wilder's Classic Stories  has authentic recipes covering nearly all of the Ingalls' family meals. From fresh churned butter and johnny cakes to cracklings and blackbird pie, Barbara Walker has developed recipes that are authentic, but  accessible to today's home chefs. The Little House Cookbook also has an fascinating introduction which discusses the cooking methods of the American frontier. 
With the popularity of eating local, sustainable, and ingredients based foods, this cookbook seems like a natural fit for modern tastes and sensibilities. So leave the Lean Cuisine in the freezer, have Pa go hunt a deer, and start stoking the fire, 'cause this half-pint is hungry!
