Bread baking is easy - and it's fun. It's sensual, and it's completely absorbing - and the end result is a prize that is hard to equal." ...This is the book for the compleat bread baker--and for friends of bread bakers, bystanders who are curious about what makes this oldest of culinary arts such a joy.
