Celebration Breads - Recipes, Tales and Traditions is a beautifully illustrated book by Betsy Oppeneer.  The book is inscribed with Betsy's signature and a personal note, and can be shipped to anywhere within the continental United States for an additional charge.

Betsy is an accomplished baker, cooking teacher and lecturer.  She has studied at some of the most prestigious schools in the country, as well as with well renowned chefs and teachers, including Julia Child, Nick Malgieri, Nancy Silverton and Bernard Clayton. Betsy has made regular appearances on  TV Food Network's Cooking Live with Sara Moulton and CBS This Morning.  

Every culture celebrates with food and no food has a greater influence on culture, history and religion than bread.  From the unleavened matzo of Passover to the German stollen of Christmas, bread in its many forms brings people together, linking traditions and generations.  Bread is Betsy Oppenneer's passion.     Chapters are divided by region: Africa, the Americas, the British Isles, Eastern Europe, the Eastern Mediterranean, the Middle East, Russia and Asia, Scandinavia, and Western Europe.
