my thought as well. plus, who has all the equipment for the cooking
techniques likely to be employed (smoker, wok, tagine, or what have you -
dare i say canning equipment?) that are likely to be involved in a

if you're turning out a 'professional' book, that would be one thing. but
as i understand it, it's a charity effort by a group of non-professionals.
