The Knowledge: How to rebuild civilization in the aftermath of a cataclysm
That looks awesome, but I hope you didn't throw away all that bone marrow.. Just because this is one of the best dishes I've ever had. [(Here.)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._John_(restaurant)
Easy to do at home, too. Btw, I can't recommend Ferguson's book highly enough.
I don't know any animal, or any hunter-gatherer society, that ate only the skeletal muscle and then left the rest. If you like offal, I recommend books like these:
The Whole Beast: Nose to Tail Eating;
Beyond Nose to Tail: More Omnivorous Recipes for the Adventurous Cook; and
Odd Bits: How to Cook the Rest of the Animal.
Jane Grigson's English Food (1979) is probably as close as you'll get to an English Mastering the Art. It's as much a history and anthrolpological study of English food as it is a collection of recipes, but its recipes are extensive and excellent.
Elizabeth Luard's The Old World Kitchen (1987), which ranges across the European continent, nonetheless contains a fine, idiosyncratic collection of English recipes in its midst (and is probably the best single-volume reference of old world peasant cooking traditions).
The incomparable Elizabeth David's English Bread and Yeast Cookery (1977) covers every inch of the English bread-making tradition, from milling wheat to presenting at the table. David's attentions were usually focused in a more southerly direction -- the foods of France, Italy -- but she treats the baking traditions of her home nation with as much detail and respect as she does those of more foreign locales
If you want a more contemporary, chef-y book, check out Fergus Henderson's more recent The Whole Beast (2004), which is delicious, detailed, and delectable.
And finally, if you want something a lot more chef-y, Heston Blumenthal's The Fat Duck Cookbook (2009) will show you contemporary English gastronomy at its most ambitious (but also, maybe, its most pretentious). It sure is pretty to look at, tho.
If you want something decadent, adventurous, and cheap, try some of the cuts less-commonly consumed in North America.
Corned beef tongue is fucking delicious, and a staple of Jewish deli with good reason. In most parts of the world, the tongue is one of the most valuable cuts because it is so rich in taste and texture. In North America, you could probably get a 3-5lb cut for $10 if you're friendly at the butcher's or farmer's market.
Pig's feet is fattier and more unctuous, and it features in all sorts of cuisine from soul food to Southeast Asian to traditional French cooking.Here are a few preparations.
A lot of these cuts are cheap either because they require planning ahead for a slow cook, or because a mild cultural taboo keeps most people from our continent from approaching these delicious cuts.
If you want to learn a lot more about getting the best value from your meat, here are some books I'd recommend. Consider the up-front cost an investment that pays dividends each time you don't spend more money on restaurants and pricey cuts.
The Whole Beast: Nose to Tail Eating, by Fergus Henderson ($12.04)
The River Cottage Meat Book, by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall ($26.40)
Odd Bits: How to Cook the Rest of the Animal, by Jennifer McLagan ($23.10)

Check out The Whole Beast also.
Thats a great one, but I prefer the Fergus Henderson book Nose to Tail Eating
It doesn't specifically cover mice, but there are likely some good tips in here:

My wife got me this book for my birthday last year. This year she's getting me this
Might I suggest Odd Bits or The Whole Beast, then you can kill (and eat) 2 birds with one stone?

Oopsie. Corrected it. It's suppose to be for:
Well, ya know... eating dogs and cats may become a thing in full-blown collapse.
