This book has wonderful recipes that are easy to prepare and implement. The instructions contained in this book are clear and images are provied for visual reference. I beleive that people with some moderate baking experience will get the most from this book.

Peter gives you the recipes and techniques to make you the boss of the bread. I am now baking after long slow ferments when I want to bake. I love the panetonne dough that uses a a sour starter. It is like a slice of heaven. I have all the other bread books and this is my current favorite, until Peter writes another one.

I've been making my own bread for years, but not the kind of breads described in this book. I've had the book a short while and made two batches of bread carefully following the books directions. Both recipes were easy and turned out exactly as described. The bread is delicious. I look forward to trying more recipes from the book.

I found the book interesting. The breads are not quick but they are worth the effort. I like that Peter gives ratios rather than simply measurements of ingredients. It allows you to make the quantity of dough / starter you would like. The book has a good range of recipes from simple breads to Danish pastries, English muffins and more. For the learning but serious bread-maker.

I discovered the beautiful world of artisan bread a few months ago. I had never heard of Peter Reinhart before then and I stumbled on this book while looking for another bread book. I was hooked by the pretty pictures of breads, dough, croissants the minute I laid my eyes on this book. I have now baked several of the breads and I am just getting better and better at the art of baking homemade breads. I credit this master baker and this particular book for taking me to a higher level of loaf artistry. Peter R. has made a lot of his recipes almost foolproof, so easy to make and more importantly....incredibly delicious. I would recommend this book a million times.

This is an excellent book, I have tried most of the breads, buns and cinnamon buns recipes from this book. The whole wheat bread is very good, moist on the inside and nice crust on the outside. The crusty buns are awsome, cinnamon buns are to die for, very fluffy and moist. Ciabatta bread and pizza dough are fantastic. I have tested other bread recipes, but the recipes in this book are far more superior. I now use the recipes from this book for my every day bread,I highly recommend this book.
