Does anyone out there know of a good book on how to start a bakery?Something that covers everything from buying/ leasing space, proper equipment, procurment procedures, money saving tips, time saving tips, marketing suggestions, etc etc etc?

You can browse inside the table of contents but I think it covers what you are looking for.
