This is an excellent resource for in-depth knowledge on bread-making. I have never found its equal. I will be sure to purchase other books by Peter Reinhart.

I have been baking bread for many years, yet I learned much from this book. My results were outstanding -- the dinner guests raved about each loaf. The only real "con" for the book is that I found his descriptions/explanations sometimes very difficult to follow. Still worth the purchase as I use his recipes for all my bread baking now!
