I carried David's book (the handsome, large paperback edition) around in my briefcase for a long time and would read it in court, on buses and subways, etc. It treats the history of bread as the history of man and it's a very good lens through which to view our progress from breaking teeth on roughly milled grain to sliced white bread. I'm really anxious to get back into the restful rhythm of baking bread; it's really a natural anti-depressant, don't you think?
