Default Good books with sourdough recipes?

Google burped, so I'll publish this a 2nd time.

Just because I am not a professional baker doesn't mean I don't have
experience baking bread, or for that matter, using starter. I have
both.

I did just that, Mike. I picked your website. I picked your recipes.
I made your bread recipe multiple times. Then you come and say pick
someone and stick with it. I had already been using your material.

After baking your bread multiple times, I gave details and asked
questions. I get you saying this, and all the experts saying "too many
rises". "Not long enough rises". "To many rises and not long enough
rises for the ones you should have". If I am to blame, then it looks
like you need to really rework all your material, or no one seems to
agree with you.
