Instant New York Times Bestseller

Step into Old Time Hawkey’s magical world with 100 comforting recipes and stories inspired by the beauty of Northern Michigan

Well hello, buddy.

In videos that have captured the hearts of millions online, Old Time Hawkey, aka Fritz and his dogs Donnybrook and Kris Draper, is always there to offer a hot apple cider or an ice cream sundae on a tough day, to help you drift off to sleep with a story or a retro video game.

Fritz's first cookbook, Old Time Hawkey's Recipes from the Cedar Swamp, features over 100 cozy recipes divided into three categories—indoor, campfire, and companions—with comforting recipes like Pumpkin Pancakes, Dutch Oven Nachos, and Honey Cinnamon Cold Brew.

Everyone has a “cedar swamp.” It could be a childhood home, an old journal, or something as simple as a scent or an old song. This book brings you on an adventure through Fritz's—with simple recipes inspired by three generations of campfires, deer camps, and family gatherings spent in Northern Michigan.
