From Booklist
Chicken may be ubiquitous on the American dinner table, but duck shows up mostly on restaurant menus and goose scarcely anywhere. Livingston sets out to make both duck and goose less daunting to cooks. For culinary purposes, it makes good sense to treat both birds together, since both have prodigious protective fat under their skins, and that fat must be removed to make the birds' flesh palatable. Livingston treats only wild geese and ducks, products of the hunt and thus less fatty. The author offers little guidance for those with only the domestic product in hand, but he does provide a directory of the differences betweem the kinds of birds that hunters are most likely to encounter. Livingston's recipes, most of them simple approaches, appropriate to game, are organized by cooking method: roasting, frying, grilling, broiling, and boiling. A chapter on marinades and sauces offers very helpful advice on taming gamy flavors in wild meats. Mark Knoblauch

simply delicious.....
I have been looking for a duck and goose cookbook for a while now and Im glad i took a chance on this one. Plenty of different ideas to create in and on the oven. I hunt ducks and geese and now i can prepare them many new ways Some of the recipes are for large quanities or call for unusual ingredients but over all a must have for any bird hunter or cook.
