BARBECUE BISCUITS AND BEANS

$24.95

By the Muddy Angelina

$26.00

Texas Cowboy Cooking

$24.95

Whether donning denim or black tie, CHUCK WAGON COOKING champions Bill Cauble and Clifford Tienert whip up menus to please cowboys, city slickers, VIPs-and family. True to the heritage of the Old West, Cauble and Tienert capture and preserve the culture of the cowboy and the rustic romance of the great American cattle drive in BARBECUE BISQUITS AND BEANS. Recipes for every occasion from casual cookouts, to family celebrations, to black tie dinners include basic barbecue, whole ribeye, ranch beans, fresh summer vegetables, fragrant sourdough biscuits, savory sauces, fruit cobblers, and the best bread puddings. The easy to follow recipesare accompanied by tips, tales and tidbits from two of the foremost authorities on cooking with live coals. By the Muddy Angelina is an old-time music CD that is packaged inside a 92-page hard bound book. In an all-out effort to capture the rich pioneer spirit of East Texas, it covers everything from fiddle tunes and outlaw ballads to stories of steamboats, bears, panthers and rakestraw hogs. The CD has 21 different musical selections, each corresponding to one of the chapters in the book. Each chapter has photographs, folklore, or history that goes with the music on the CD, and as an added bonus, there is an occasional rare sound sequence that is woven into the musical layout. These "lost sounds" include things such as hunting horns, red wolves, and a wonderful East Texas steamboat sequence designed to take you back at least a hundred years. Although Tom Perini, proprietor of the Perini Ranch Steakhouse in Buffalo Gap (pop. 499), Texas, has gained national fame for his cuisine, he's quick to remind people that he's just a "cowboy cook."

"I don't do any 'plate drawing', where they drizzle sauces to 'paint' your dish," Perini drawls as he pushes back his ever-present cowboy hat. "If you find a leaf on one of my plates, you send it back! I want to do real food that looks good and tastes good and that you can recognize."

American Legend:
The Real-Life Adventures of
David Crockett

$25.95
 

Dave Van Ronk (1936-2002) was one of the founding figures of the 1960s folk revival, but he was far more than that. A pioneer of modern acoustic blues, a fine songwriter and arranger, a powerful singer, and one of the most influential guitarists of the 1960s, he was also a marvelous storyteller, a peerless musical historian, and one of the most quotable figures on the Greenwich Village scene. Holding court in legendary venues like Gerde’s Folk City and the Gaslight Caf8E, Van Ronk’s influence was so great that a stretch of Sheridan Square—the heart of the Village—was renamed on June 30, 2004, and is now Dave Van Ronk Street. The Mayor of MacDougal Street is a unique first-hand account by a major player in the social and musical history of the ’50s and ’60s. It features encounters with young stars-to-be like Bob Dylan (who survived much of his first year in New York sleeping on Van Ronk’s couch), Tom Paxton, Phil Ochs, Joan Baez, and Joni Mitchell, as well as older luminaries like Reverend Gary Davis, Woody Guthrie, Mississippi John Hurt, and Odetta. Colorful, hilarious, engaging, and a vivid evocation of a fascinating time and place, The Mayor of MacDougal Street will appeal not only to folk and blues fans but to anyone interested in the music, politics, and spirit of a revolutionary period in American culture. Capturing a time when music was an integral part of life, this richly illustrated book documents, in revealing photographs and evocative descriptions, the wide variety of musical styles of the American South.

Photos and text drawn from the archives of the Library of Congress, the Smithsonian, and rarely seen private collections focus on life from the 1850s to World War II. Emphasizing how music was part of daily life -- at home for dancing and recreation, in church for worship and ceremony, on the job as an accompaniment to work -- the book celebrates the vitality of the American South's musical life. ©2000, 160 pages.

 

What most baby boomers know about the legendary frontier figure David “Davy” Crockett has been gleaned from the Walt Disney movie and television series starring Fess Parker. In American Legend: The Real-Life Adventures of David Crockett, WSU English professor Buddy Levy presents a fuller profile of the man who made Tennessee famous in the early 1800s. It’s not just a master heroic outdoorsman who emerges; the consummate politician and ferocious fighter for underdog causes shines through as well.

Born August 17, 1786, Davy Crockett found his independent spirit and developed his frontier skills on the open road at the age of 14, when he ran away from home for two years. It was a scenario that repeated itself over the course of his lifetime, as Crockett went from adventure to adventure—on the rugged frontier, into the hallowed halls of the U.S. House of Representatives, and to his death at the Alamo on March 6, 1836.

This may be the definitive story of Crockett’s life, more so than Crockett’s own 1834 autobiography, in which he capitalized on his own pop-culture hero status rampant at the time. Levy has obviously researched every inch of Crockett’s life but is careful he doesn’t let myth overpower the truth, even though it’s obvious Levy admires his subject.

Still, American Legend is not without its dramatic moments. Crockett’s killing of a 600-pound black bear depicted on page 109 is as thrilling as any fictionalized adventure story.
