Hearty boeuf bourguignon served in deep bowls over a garlic-rubbed slice of baguette toast; decadently rich croque monsieur, eggy and oozing with cheese; gossamer crème brulee, its sweetness offset by a brittle burnt sugar topping. Whether shared in a cozy French bistro or in your own home, the romance and enduring appeal of French country cooking is irrefutable. Here is the book that helps you bring that spirit, those evocative dishes, into your own home.

“They've got us surrounded, John!” Potts said. Colter nodded grimly. “I know. They're signaling us to paddle to shore. I don't think we have much of a choice,” he said. Potts did not answer his friend. He was already hastily loading and priming his musket. He would be able to get a single shot off at best.

The sight of so many Blackfeet was intimidating and he didn't know what to do.

The Indians called him "Death Wind" for his ability to blend into the forest, swoop down and bring death and destruction, and just as quickly blow away. His shooting skills were next to none, and it is said that if he could spot any target in the distance, he would never miss. He also gained his fearsome name from the fact that he was known to sprint far, fast, and wide through the forest. This was truly an amazing feat for a man that was solidly built and easily over six feet.

The Liver Eater hid in the bushes even as he eyed his prey. He had hunted many things in his 40-something years, but he had never hunted anything as vicious as the men he was stalking now. The Liver Eater was stalking members of the Crow tribe, and they were the most vicious and dangerous of all his prey. He had stayed hidden for what was easily hours on end, but he did not complain, nor did he feel sore. No, his body and senses had been used to such hardship, living alone off the land and making do with what he had. Hiding behind bushes and waiting to strike was nothing.

“They say he resides here. Or at least that is what the stories say.” The two men stood in front of a large cave. The cave's entrance seemed to beckon to the men to step inside. The entrance and the cave itself reminded Billy Weston of some old medieval paintings he had seen. In the paintings, a giant head of a hound ushered in souls to hell itself. The giant hound's gaping mouth was the entrance to the underworld, just as the cave's dark entrance seemed to be the gateway to a dark and terrible place inside.
