My recomendations are to check-out Rose Levy Biranbaums"THE BREAD BIBLE" & Jeffrey Hamelman's "BREAD" technics& recipes.
Why I suggest these two books to you is not for the recipes, but because they also discuss bread baking science as well. In other words it is also a learning book. As you know, we first must learn about baking science in order to bake the best bread that we are capable of baking.
Good luck & have a nice day.

Thanks Z ~Bestus..
I will check out "Bread" by Jeffery Hamelman..
I've read all the reviews for the Bread Bible, Crust and Crumb, and Bread alone on Amazon..
I'm finding it hard to choose the right one to purchase.. It seems either one of these books gets some rave reviews, and then, shot down as no good, reviews..
I suppose it will come down to drawing straws to see which one will win!!
