The Scarlet Letter (Bantam Classics)
Nathaniel Hawthorne
Bantam Classics, 1981
A wonderful piece of literature, however
I completely agree with most HS students that this book should be optional reading for them because HS teachers should very well know that there are many different minds that need very different kinds of reading material and exposure to variety is not always a good ...

Peter Reinhart's Whole Grain Breads: New Techniques, Extraordinary Flavor
Ten Speed Press, 2007
A real breakthrough!
Since I came to the U.S. I started baking my own bread ( I couldn't take the crustless, squishy "wonderbreads" from the local supermarket). I did pretty well, but first with the "Breadbakers' Apprentice" and now the "Whole Grain Breads" I experienced a real ...

The Greatest Thing Since Sliced Bread: A Novel
Don Robertson
Harper Paperbacks, 2008
Magnificent
I loved this book years and years ago, and love it even more today. This book has the feel of Mark Twain, though set in WWII Ohio. Read this if you possibly can. It is a book that can not be beat.

The Bread Baker's Apprentice: Mastering the Art of Extraordinary Bread
Peter Reinhart
Ten Speed Press, 2001
Beautiful book, delicious bread...
I'm an idiot baker, but a little snooty about the bread I buy. So when I turned out the best baguette I've probably ever had, inside or outside of France, I knew this was a keeper. The book looks too pretty to be useful, but it rocks. Want the chemistry behind baking? ...

A MUST have if you like Sichuan food
I am very impressed by the depth of knowledge the author acquired to write this book and how she carefully shares it with her readers. It is not just a book of recipes. The author did her homework understanding the hows and the whys. I love how she explains the many ...

The Tassajara Bread Book
Edward Espe Brown
Shambhala, 1995
Don't be afraid of the bread
For years I have been intimidated by bread - previous attempts have been disasterous: I have baked loaves so dense they have their own gravitational field, or a bread-like substance somewhat akin to crackers lies in the bread pan. I had almost given up on it, until a ...
