Book excerpt: Throughout history, the poacher has been pigeonholed as scoundrel, thief, & criminal. But there exists another breed of poacher: one who proudly hunts without a gun, using guile alone. Veovode has spent a lifetime observing animals & coaxing them onto her plate. She'll show you how to nab a turkey using a fishnet, tap into woodchuck psychology, avoid meeting a bear on a path, & catch catfish with cornmeal cakes. She also shares 60 original recipes, including her Lemon Roadrunner with Almonds, Porcupine in Pomegranate Sauce, & Rattlesnake Potpie with Prickly Pear Apples. Other recipes feature venison, buffalo, prairie dog, armadillo, field mouse, & grasshopper (along with store-bought substitutions for squeamish city dwellers). Illus.
