From the Wood-Fired Oven: New and Traditional Techniques for Cooking and Baking

Booklist-"It's safe to say that most of us won't be baking in a wood-fired oven . . . at least, in the foreseeable future. On the other hand, for bread aficionados and others addicted to the tastes emanating from these kinds of ovens, there's no better substitute for the knowledge and expertise Miscovich imparts --not to mention the 50-something recipes. He begins with the foundations: understanding ovens and fuel, operating guidelines, and all the processes that comprise bread-baking, from ingredients to proofing. Every chapter is filled with color photographs and, when necessary, step-by-step sequences. Where the author truly excels is in his very thorough explanation of recipes. They're woven into the text, using a narrative style.
