Summary: Excellent Resource for Baking Great Pies
Comment: I think this book on Great Pies & Tarts is fantastic. It provides many wonderful recipes. But the best aspect of the book is that the author provides key insights into how to bake a pie and strategies for troubleshooting your pie when your pie did not come out as well as you would have liked. It tells you the basics that you should know if you bake any pie. It describes details in pie making that you would only get with experience. So if you want to start off pie making with guidance, avoiding simple mistakes, and with knowledge of required basics, then this cook book is necessary. Moreover, with the knowledge provided by the author, you are inspired to create wonderful pies. It is not just a book with recipes. It is a book which empowers you to create great pies. The only improvement I would recommend is that it would be helpful if every cookbook provided pictures of the result of every recipe, which would be labor intensive. Otherwise this book is more than just a cookbook, it is a source of inspiration and experience.
