This book is dedicated to my late grandparents, particularly my grandfather who passed away from prostate cancer. Your wisdom is what has kept me going each and every day. For as long as I can remember, the many things that you have taught me are now helping me as a grown man.

You have instilled so many values, which I could never have gotten in the classroom. You were a true example of the values you taught. As much as it was hard, it kept me focused.

Creating the perfect loaf of bread--a challenge that has captivated bakers for centuries--is now the rage in the hippest places, from Waitsfield, Vermont, to Point Reyes Station, California. Like the new generation of beer drinkers who consciously seek out distinctive craft-brewed beers, many people find that their palates have been reawakened and re-educated by the taste of locally baked, whole-grain breads.
