"You might have thought that being the managing director of a large, successful company wouldn't leave a lady in her eighties with much energy to spare. In Mrs Walker's case you would be wrong. Some of her other interests are field sports, writing and cooking. As the daughter of a shooting man, wife and mother of anglers (her son is the celebrated angler Richard Walker) she has long noticed that many sportsmen's skill at taking their prey greatly exceeds their knowledge of what to do with it next. This is her solution. In his Foreword to the book Maurice Wiggin writes that 'she has shown us that exquisite good taste is not incompatible with resourceful practicality.' Every recipe included in the book bears this out. Whatever the occasion, a celebration dinner or a simple supper after a day in the country, there is a dish to match it. Apart from her recipes, Mrs Walker's many entertaining tales of sporting life make the book a fascinating one. On a more practical level, it is a cookbook for the sportsman with his own bag to draw from and also for those who must buy for the table. Detailed instructions are given on such essentials as choosing and preparing game and fish, home freezing, and the correct accompaniments to the various dishes, including the selection of wines.".
