First, I wanted to take a bite out of the cover. What a wonderful array of breads, followed by a warm welcome from a child's memories of racing her brothers home from the school bus to find out what amazing smells would be coming from the family kitchen. Then the bread selections themselves: besides the basics, there is Raisin Walnut, Sourdough, Ale and Mustard Bread, Sourdough (including your own starter), Rye with caraway seeds, Olive and Oregano (to dip in olive oil and balsamic vinegar). Potato Onion and Thyme...drool....Courgette (zucchini) Ginger and Garlic...dying here...Classic Italian Focaccia, Pizza, Country Oatmeal, Sage and Blue Cheese...Dill Bread and more exquisite torture... This is one book I will be keeping very close-by.The book is nicely formatted and I appreciate that the author gives measurements in ounces, milliliters, and cups and baking temperatures in degrees Celsius and  Fahrenheit, as well as indicates gas marks.
