What good outdoor cooking books do you recommend?

I usually use a book called "The Supermarket Backpacker" for new ideas on what to cook while in the wild.  What books do you reference for recipes on outdoor cooking?

Backcountry Cooking

I have gotten some new ideas from a book I got last Christmas called Backcountry Cooking, but mostly just trial and error from personal experience and things other people recommend. One of the guys from our group swears by burnt toast with cornstarch phlegm on it. He calls it "blackbear on toast." I think it's some cruel, repressed childhood memory from a family camping trip gone awry. Someone needs to get in touch with his inner child, slap it, and say, "Get that out of your mouth. Eat some real food."

I've yet to read it, but

I've yet to read it, but "Cooking The One-Burner Way" looks like an interesting outdoor cook book. Sometimes I just get creative and ignore the cook books.
