The Cajun Bomber's Knock Out Cookbook" is undefeated cookin 5 out of 5 stars.

"Da champ" Dale Bellard had a knock out idea in sharing his authentic cajun cuisine. I've tried several of his recipes, and boy, do I wish I had the money to hire him to cook for me, all the time! The characters in the book makes you feel like you know them personally, especially Dale, himself. What an interesting young life he had. A fighter to the end. I got goose-bumps when he talked about the old woman who gave him the incentive to finish his last fight, undefeated. Was she a ghost? Who knows? Anything is possible. Everything he's been good enough to share about his talent in the kitchen, has been nothing short of delicious. Chef Emeril has nothing on this boxing champ! I hope he finds the time to let us in on more of his recipe's in the future. A sequel would be another knock out! I wish I was a friend,or member of this man's family, as I'd love to sit at his table, to dine on his delightful food. My mouth waters at the thought! What a great book, what delicious recipe's, what an interesting character! Still a perfect record! Kudo's to Victoria Hobbs Olsen for another wonderfully written book. Glad to see she's able to take us on another one of her literary adventure's. A journey well worth attending. Please, keep up the great work, Ms. Hobbs.I daydream of visiting with Victoria of all places, on Harvard Yard! Curious....
Editorial Review:
The life story of an undefeated boxer, Dale Bellard, told in anecdotal short stories beginning in the cotton fields of Louisiana. Many simple tried-and-true Cajun recipes are sprinkled among the boxer's international tales of boxing.
