This practical cookbook is both an illustrated guide to the breads of the world and a bread-making manual, with over 100 recipes for delicious home-made loaves of all kinds.

The book opens with a short history of breads and bread-making before describing the different types of grains, flour and extra ingredients that can be used in baking, supported with step-by-step photographs of the entire bread-making process from kneading the dough to baking the loaf.

Following this is an illustrated reference guide to the different types of bread to be found across the globe with information on history, taste and shape.

The recipe section that completes the book includes all the classic breads such as Irish Soda Bread, San Francisco Sourdough and Indian Parathas to less well-known recipes such as Portuguese Corn Bread and Syrian Onion Bread.
