I have never given a five star review on any book, but Brilliant Bread by James Morton deserves it! What I enjoy about the book, is that it is well organized and well written. He takes you on a journey of bread making from simpler, easy recipes, to the more complex ones, with detailed explanations, so you have a better understanding of the science behind the process. All the extra details are jovially written which is a joy to read.
Brilliant Bread has a clean layout and is filled with many photos that compliment the recipes nicely. I love how each recipe starts with the "Time spent in kitchen" and "time taken altogether" to make each recipe, it gives you an accurate idea of how much time you needed to spend at minimum before starting.
I have the Kindle version of the book because I couldn't wait to start baking and will no doubt get the printed version later on. I am glad I got the Kindle version, as I always have the recipes if I am on the go. The digital version of this book is excellent. I read it on my computer, iPad, Kindle and mobile phone with ease. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to learn how to bake bread, this is the best book to have. I have tried many different recipes for scones, white bread, pita breads, focaccia and pizza dough, and none beat James' recipes. Weighing your ingredients like he says, really makes all the difference but not only that, the whole process he uses is fool proof.
Five stars for me and I look forward to his next book and who knows, with a video or two?

I LOVE this book!
I am in love with this book. It has literally changed our lives. My husband, kids, and I are spoiled to homemade bread now. It is all very doable and I love James Morton's approach in teaching the bread making basics ( and advanced bread making) I have gotten so many compliments on my breads i make that i always tell people they HAVE to buy this book. I cant wait to purchase his others.

The book is fabulous. However, you will receive it damaged, because the people who sell it don't package it very well, and then your expensive book will become a pain in the A$$
