Basic Yeast Bread

I got this in Boston. My first bread recipe I ever made

5 ¾ to 6 ½ cups flour (I like bread flour)
2 packages (2 Tbls.) yeast
2 cups milk (1 cup dry and 2 cups very warm water
1/3 cups sugar
1/3 cup oil
2 tsp. salt
2 eggs

Pour all ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Heat water to 120 degrees and add to the other ingredients. Mix, then knead for approximately 10 minutes. Let rise till double (about 1 hour in a warm place)
Divide into two balls. Knead, then roll out in a rectangle with a rolling pin. Roll the dough into loaves and put into well greased pans. Brush with oil and let rise till nearly double. (30-40 minutes). Bake at 375 degrees for approximately 30 minutes or till brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
