Can anybody recommend a decent camping cookery book for the kindle? I have lots of fiction books, but nothing on cookery. It might be fun to look for a recipie to cook indoors or outdoors while away in the caravan but when i had a look in amazons kindle store there seems to be very little description with each book available. As camping is supposed to be fun i was looking for fun or fairly simple recipies with not too many ingredients, and a reasonable mix of dishes (eg not just curry etc etc). Seems to be the only problem with a kindle - you cannot pick the 'e-book' up and sample it before you buy... Oh - and if anybody can recommend a free cookery book - all the better lol!

Just curious, I thought all books had "download sample" for the Kindle....
just so you could sample it before you purchased..

Just found all these on a quick search - Amazon camping cook books for Kindle..

The sample function doesn't appear for all books, but then a sample wouldn't give much idea I don't think for this subject.
You could always compile your own cooking guides and email them to the Kindles email address; this converts a Word document you produce (for example) to the right format for the device.

If it's available to download, it should have a sample... (as it's already prepared to do so!)...

In your list, I looked at every book on the front page and all had a sample you could download.

I'm glad you had the time to check 'em, but what I actually meant was that not all ebooks for Kindle have a sample available; I wasn't referring specifically to those books in the search list.

Thanks for your help guys! Just odd that you cannot sample cook books as i recon they are very 'personal' so far as how suitable one finds them for them! I just wondered if anybody could recommend any particular one from their own personal experience from actually using one in a caravan. When camping weight/space restrictions can dictate what is easy to cook and what is not. Maybe as suggested i should write my own Kindle Kamping Kookery Kompilation in order to generate millions of pounds revenue for my Kamping family (Patent Pending lol).

I have these cook books on my Kindle at the moment:-

The Everything potluck cookbook

Gingerbread cookbook

A Parchment Paper Thanksgiving

The Everything Soup, Stew and Chilli cookbook

Circle of Friends cookbook 25 Savory pie recipes

Cookie Swap cookbook

Gluton free - hassle free

Thanksgiving cookbook

Pumpkin cookbook

Vegetarian Indian cooking

Tailgating cookbook

Circle of friends cookbook 25 burger recipes

Dinners made easy cookbook

Easy Vegitarian recipes

Easy Appetizer recipes

 

It does seem a lot but as they were all free I thought 'why not'. They don't weigh anything and there's loads of room on Kindle. 

Have to say, not tried any yet,  but as soon as I do I will get back to you.

Why not, you do realise that you can 'self-publish' on Amazon do you? Kindle Direct Publishing

Hehe thanks for fun and interesting replies. It seems i am not the only one looking for recipie books in the kindle format. maybe i will cobble something together and sell it for a few quid and hope to sell 84 million copies to make me very rich and famous lol!! Back in the real world (!!) i will check out the titles suggested for free and hope to find some caravan friendly books.

Thanks for your input "guys" (ps - why does the phrase guys include animal, vegetable and mineral... Does anybody know why??)
