Summary: THE Baker's reference for Italian Baking
Comment: Anyone looking for knowledgeable information on Italian baking will find it in The Italian Baker. Carol Fields has provided, under a single cover, a virtually all-encompassing collection of recipes that define the art of Italian Baking.
With a strong emphasis on regional breads, this book will satisfy anyone's desire to acquire traditional southern european bread-baking skills.
I personally have found the section on Pizza most helpful--I have received nothing but compliments from everyone who has tasted my pizza since I started using the dough recipes that are found in this book.
The Italian Baker should have a prominent spot on every kitchen's cookbook shelf.

Summary: Number One Cookbook in My Kitchen
Comment: I am enjoying two weeks off at Christmas and went "crusing" on the net to find recipes for Panetone (festive Italian Christmas Bread) and found this site with the lavish comments and laudatory praises for Carol Field's book. I also found a "doable" panetone recipe I could conjure up. After a visit to a local bookstore and finding this "treasure" I am hooked! I bought it on Sunday and it's now Thursday and I have read over 100 pages--not only for the tasty recipes, but the detailed, insatiable descriptions of the regions, and history of the recipe at hand. Never have I had a cookbook that I could rave about like this one. After spending 10 years in Vicenza and Napoli with my Army husband, I recognize the regions she so adeptly describes and the foods that complement the plates on the table. Do not miss this one, it is a rare jewel. Thank you Carol for the best christmas present I got this year!

Summary: For the truly gifted baker
Comment: I'm a lazy, quick recipe kind of guy, and this is a gourmet breadmaking encyclopedia.
If you're really into the baking thing, this is a great book. If you were hoping for a quick pizza dough, or easy foccacia recipe, this is probably too much information for you.
