It’s October 12, 7:00pm to 8:30pm. Here’s the info and RSVP link from Magers and Quinn:

About the book: With nearly one million copies of their five books in print, Jeff Hertzberg and Zoë François, authors of the Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day series, have proven that people—and after a year of pandemic lockdown, more people than ever before—want to bake their own bread, and they want to do it easily and quickly.

With THE BEST OF ARTISAN BREAD IN FIVE MINUTES A DAY, Jeff and Zoë have chosen their absolute favorite 80 recipes from all five of their books, bringing them together into a single volume that is the only bread book a baker needs, including:
• The best of the European and American artisan traditions
• Whole grain loaves
• Pizza and flatbread
• Brioche, challah, and other sweet or enriched breads
• Gluten-free recipes
• Natural sourdough bread

In addition to old favorites, the book includes new tricks, tips, and techniques that Jeff and Zoë have learned along the way.

With this revolutionary stored-dough technique—along with color and instructional black-and-white photographs, chapters on ingredients, equipment, and a baking products resource list—readers can have stunning, delicious bread on Day One. THE BEST OF ARTISAN BREAD IN FIVE MINUTES A DAY will make everyone a baker—with only five minutes a day of active preparation time. And this greatest-hits collection will make the perfect holiday gift.
