In his inimitable style, Buck Peterson takes you to such far-flung, well-hung places as Azerbebygones and the Isle of Gilligan to enjoy foodstuffs once known only to a small handful of well-heeled heels. The International Roadkill Cookbook teaches where and how to practice roadkill skills on foreign soil, details the food customs and traditions of the home countries, and serves the most popular national recipes prepared in Buck's own roadside test kitchens.

About the Authors

Buck "Buck" Peterson is America's Most Trusted Naturalist and Life Coach. Errant Knight of the Outdoor World, master guide, fisherman up s*ht creek with a paddle, waterfowl hunter who knows skies hold a limit, big game hunter with never a scope eye injury, Rhoades scholar of Game Cookery. Born in Northernmost Minnesota, he grew up on crappie-choked waters of the Land of Lakes, not the butter cooperative. His first boat was his dad's wood duck boat which, unfortunately, came untied and went over the dam. His first gun was a Daisy Red Ryder and because he wore thick glasses at an early age, he didn't put his eye out. His first duck dog was a black and tan miniature dachshund undone by a largemouth bass of record size. His second was a happy yellow lab with a stuffed nose. A magical, mystical transition in hunting partner legend occurred when the aged lab welcomed Buck's new pig, an animal also known for loyalty, cheerfulness, cleanliness, patriotism, and soft mouth, to the family. Named after Dorothy Lamour, another classic beauty, Buck's new hunting pig quickly became his best friend in the blind and at in-law reunions. It's reported even Sgt Preston of the Yukon Territory admired Buck's early adoption of ordinary farm animals as hunting partners. Paul Bunyan's ox was, of course, blue with envy.Permeant home for this famous woodsman, an expert best left outstanding in the field is Buck's Wilderness Lodge and Advanced Plucking Institute in northernmost Minnesota on Big Babe Lake. The lake is one of a string of spring-fed lakes and holds a large population somewhere of crappies, sunfish, northerns, and walleyes. No motorized watercraft are allowed except for Buck's one-man submarine. His large log lodge is built from old-growth fir trees with spotted owl nesting holes on the north end of the lake near a loon nest and a small bay full of wild rice and colorful turtles. Buck's personal housing is a log cabin hand-carried by his Norwegian forebears (suitcases were much larger back then) and reassembled upwind of the lodge guest latrines. The cabin stores a complete collection of George Herter's cook and guidebooks and a Herter 17' square stern canoe is outback. Herter's famous daredevil spoons hang everywhere in the trees where fly-fish casting lessons are held. An honors graduate (local women studies) of The College of the Great Loon Spirit, Buck is often invited to speak to groups, off-campus mostly and way off-campus at eastern women's colleges. His big career break was selection as the first professional big game hunting guide in NYC's Central Park 1985-87 with an expense account at the King Cole Room at the St. Regis where he often stayed way past closing. His best friends are too unmanageable to be considered a voting block but if they could focus, Sven Stoolsoftnerson would be President. If you are a veteran and a good sport, friendship is guaranteed in this group until the check arrives. Two-for-ones are available in the lodge's Valhalla Lounge to anyone that takes a child, a vet, a disabled first responder fishing, hunting or just skipping stones on Big Babe Lake. Rare to take corporate money, Buck's only assignment recently was scouting northwestern ocean shorelines for beached whales for large cat-food manufacturers. He is currently petitioning for a Roving Ambassador position in Maker's Mark(R) Ambassador Club.

J. Angus "Sourdough" McLean, illustrator, was Buck's wingman and sporting art risktaker. From a family rich in Oregon big woods logging, his illustrations were exact, appropriate, and brimming with good humor. A fine fisherman, woodsman, Sourdough got the drift and nailed every book subject with extraordinary skill. No illustrations were wasted. When he and Buck first met up, he was drawing nature images for a large t-shirt company in the Pacific Northwest and in spare time, drew pro bono for the local logging festivals, schools. Like few others, John communicated the joy of being alive, a moving, essential part of nature, and his general approach to the outdoors might be best found in a short series of oil paintings.He was flattered when Leanin' Tree(R) chose this image for greeting cards and a large specialty apparel company chose it for clothing with international distribution. In all his oil paintings, now in private collections, J.Angus "Sourdough" McLean elevates a comic sensibility about the natural world that resonates especially well for the young at heart. The paintings put the comic and realistic vision on equal footing in sporting art with the skill of those famous for traditional views of wildlife. Another great example is his take on fishing bears featured on the cover of Buck's Wildlife of the New Millennium. Sourdough's huge talent was employed elsewhere. Look for his handiwork in the early cartoon mascot for the Oregon Ducks. He even poses as a Scottish bagpiper in The International Roadkill Cookbook and shows a pesky squirrel who's boss in Buck's Peterson's Complete Guide to Deer Hunting.Buck and Sourdough held creative sessions at a logger bar in Vernonia, Oregon, where long necks didn't last long, where big ideas floated as free as gastric wind. Several of the best big thoughts are still unsafe for public consumption but Buck and Sourdough started an important book many moons ago that will feature some of Sourdough's best takes on subject matter that will widely move the needle.
