Publication date: 1976
Here is the acknowledged doyen of American cookery on his favourite subject — bread — sharing his knowledge, his prejudices, his delights. James Beard is so persuasive about the simple and joyous art of breadmaking that once you start with this book and plunge your hands in the dough, you will become a confirmed breadmaker for life.
Illustrated throughout with drawings done as Beard went through the process of breadmaking, this book is a must for everyone to whom homemade bread is a delight, an economic necessity, or a hitherto unattainable dream of fresh crusty bread emerging from your own oven.
