Robert Penn sets out the history of agriculture and bread making. He learns how to use pre-industrial techniques to grow and produce his own family's bread. The most intriguing part was the history of agriculture and bread making. Less so the author's own bread making journey. He travels frequently, which is a little environmentally concerning, seeking out wild wheat and meeting growers and producers of flour and bread. All in all it was okay.
