The single greatest manual on sourdough baking in any language. It still amazes me that they managed to publish a full book where there are really only two basic recipes--although many embellishments and some other dishes at the end of the book--for an excellent high-hydration sourdough and great baguette.

Having lived round the corner from Tartine bakery for a couple of years I had to learn to make the bread on returning to the UK. My weekly sourdough is based on Chad's and, imho, bloody amazing.
