Over the course of a year, he learns how to plant, harvest, thresh and mill his own wheat, uncovering the history behind bread's domestication in the Fertile Crescent. As Penn reconnects with the skill and patience required to cultivate wheat, he gathers knowledge from experts around the world, revealing the resurgence of homebaking today. This book is a celebration of the millennia-old craft of breadmaking, weaving its story into the fabric of humanity. Through his experiences, Penn shares a compelling narrative that will appeal to anyone interested in food, history, and the art of traditional crafts.
