Bestselling authors Craig Lewis and Cathy Savage have travelled extensively throughout Australia, exploring and documenting Australias great outdoors. As part of their extensive field research schedule, the pair generally camp out around 100 nights each year in an array of different campsites from the coast to the deserts. Many of the recipes for this book have been conceived, tested and refined during these camping adventures.
