The Bread Baker's Apprentice - weren't we talking about this one (at great length) just a while ago? Great read; it is deserving of such recognition. What do you think, Kyle???

Invention, my dear friends, is ninety-three percent perspiration, six percent electricity, four percent evaporation, and two percent butterscotch ripple

It is an awesome book Jim. He writes very well and clearly, you get a sense of his knowledge reading the first chapters before the recipes.

As for the recipes, each one is awesome, you just want to try them all, just for the pleasure of travelling through loaves and loaves.

I have the book since a few months now and I am very pleased with it. I keep coming back for Mr. Reinhart's clear instructions and I really enjoy the high quality photographs.

For anyone who enjoys baking, this book is a must buy!
