Several weeks ago I asked for suggestions for must-have cookbooks. Thanks
to each of you who responded to the list or privately. Here are all the
books you suggested. Beard on Bread and Clayton's 1975 and 1987 versions
of the same book, Complete Book of Breads, were recommended by several
people. I will be looking for all these books on my frequent forays to
used book stores. Kathleen
