[Spit-Project] Alan Scott, 72, Artisan of the Brick Oven, Dies

[Johnna Holloway]

His obituary is in today's New York Times.
Mr. Scott with his protégé Daniel Wing wrote the 1999 book, “The Bread 
Builders” (Chelsea Green Publishing).

"More than a how-to manual, the book is also a meticulous treatise on 
the history of bread making and the physics of baking, with 
instructions, for example, on how long to let the dough rise. Mr. Scott, 
who held instructional workshops around the country, played a role in 
bringing brick ovens to hundreds of bakeries and restaurants as well."
