Publisher's Note

Nothing is more satisfying than savoring the crust and aroma of truly great home-baked bread. Maggie Glezer has traveled across America and persuaded the country's most gifted artisan bread bakers to share their very best recipes and techniques so that home cooks can now reproduce sourdoughs, pizzas, corn breads, and baguettes that are truly out of this world.
Along with the recipes and the sumptuous photography, the fascinating portraits of the bakers tell the story of the artisan bread movement in America. Visit wheat breeders in Kansas, a gristmill in Rhode Island, and specialty bakers from Berkeley to Long Island City. Share the apprentice experience and visit a baking competition where Baking Team USA is selected. Glezer opens a window to a world never before revealed.

Industry Reviews
"It's not an easy book. It gives a real education, telling you more than you might need to know....But you don't need to read it through. You should read the opening how-to chapter and then just plunge in and try a recipe that appeals to you."
Epicurious - Irene Sax (10/20/2000)

"Unfortunately, this very practical book has a very impractical format. Produced as an oversized, and overweight, picture book with gorgeous photographs of potato-and-onion-festooned pizzas and star-shaped pandoros, ARTISAN BAKING will be hard to keep on a flour-dusted counter."
New York Times Book Review - Corby Kummer (12/10/2000)
