BREAD MAKING AND BAKING
$6.95
Step back in time with this unique archive of 41 rare books written between 1805 and 1921, capturing the craft of bread making and baking as it evolved through the 19th and early 20th centuries. With over 5,000 pages of recipes, techniques, and culinary advice, this collection preserves the voices of bakers before and during the industrial revolution—many sharing their methods in print for the first time.
Explore long-lost recipes and forgotten delights: raisin pie, salt bread, Johnny cakes, Vienna bread, and the once-revolutionary aerated bread. From rustic loaves to refined patisserie, these books reveal not just what people baked, but how the culture of baking itself changed over a century.
This archive is available exclusively as a digital download—perfect for historians, bakers, and anyone curious about the roots of modern baking.

1. After your purchase, you will get a download link.

3. Do not attempt to download to a smartphone or tablet. For some reason, smart phones are generally not happy with large files.
4. Only attempt to download from a wired or a strong WIFI connection at home. Don’t try to download at Starbucks….. Public WIFI is notoriously unreliable.
5. Because these .zip files are so large, they will take some time to download. We recommend that after you hit “Download” don’t do anything for awhile, especially if you have a slow internet connection. Check your “downloads” folder. That’s where the .zip file will end up for most people.
