This would normally be 4 stars for me， but I'm bumping it to 5 stars to counterbalance the person who gave it only one star without leaving a review。 （Eyeroll）This is a good history of bread in general / sourdough in particular。 Pallant's interest in sourdough is begun by a starter which purportedly originated in Cripple Creek， Colorado during the 19th century gold rush。 He was given some of the starter in the 1970s and has been baking it ever since。Pallant traces the history of sourdough bread This would normally be 4 stars for me， but I'm bumping it to 5 stars to counterbalance the person who gave it only one star without leaving a review。 （Eyeroll）This is a good history of bread in general / sourdough in particular。 Pallant's interest in sourdough is begun by a starter which purportedly originated in Cripple Creek， Colorado during the 19th century gold rush。 He was given some of the starter in the 1970s and has been baking it ever since。Pallant traces the history of sourdough bread through ancient Egypt， biblical times， the Dark Ages in Europe， the French revolution， and to the miners of Colorado and California who traveled with starters with them in their clothes to keep them warm （thus earning the nickname "Sourdoughs"）。 He also briefly discusses sourdough's resurgence during the Covid-19 pandemic。Chock full of historical tidbits and delectable sounding sourdough recipes， this book is perfect for history buffs and bread lovers alike！ 。。。more
