I just learned that anyone can download a free version of The Bread Ovens of Quebec. If you don't have a hard copy and can't find one, then I highly recommend the electronic version.
I have a love of most things primitive, and have thought meny times of constucting an outside bake oven. The picture here of the oven under cover looks just great. It stirs something inside me that is hard to put into words. Regards, Le Loup. http://woodsrunnersdiary.blogspot.com
glad you're inspired to perhaps construct an oven. I have found a simple sand mold to be much easier to construct than the complicated alder sapling mold the French Canadians use. You'll need a mold to support the oven under construction. Stu
Bread First is a book for beginners. Everything a beginner needs to know can be found here. You can expect to bake great bread the first time. The process is simple, and the ingredients are readily available. "No knead" baking is for everyone. No experience is required. Clear instructions with photos make everything extra easy.
Bread Earth And Fire: Earth Ovens And Artisan Breads
For the past couple of years I've been revising my book, Bread Earth And Fire. I've added the subtitle Earth Ovens And Artisan Breads because I feel this more fully explains what the book is about. Along with the photos, you'll now find drawings that better illustrate the oven building process, new ovens to build as well a history of bread from the "beginning of time."
Bread Earth And Fire: Earth Ovens And Artisan Breads is available as an ebook or print copy from Lulu.
Amazon's Createspace carries a print copy of the book.

I write about bread and wood-fired bread ovens. Sourdough bread baking is my specialty. While the dough is rising I have time to make art, lots of art. Each winter I travel to Guatemala to build energy efficient stoves for the Mayas.
