Definitely a fan here.  I rarely use any recipes without playing with 
them a bit, but his are well written and quite reliable, and have 
been the jumping off point for many lovely things, like crescent 
rolls and little wheaty biscuits, spicy sweet breakfast breads and a 
not-quite-puff-pastry that is my staple--easy enough to make at home, 
and with my home milled flour, better tasting than any store bought 
version.  I still have never quite managed to make the fascinating 
Normandy Beaten Bread from the Breads of France, but one day I'll 
stop getting distracted by the other recipes and see how it too 
translates to fresh whole wheat flour.  He even wrote me quite a nice 
note when I wrote to him about a variation I'd come up with for a 
recipe from his book.  I was quite sad to hear of his passing a few 
years ago.
