Unless you have a commercial / restaurant bread oven, YES you need a heavy covered pot to make bread that beautiful. Something like what you showed in your picture would work great. Also a big dutch oven would work (and would be multi-purpose). Like this http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00063RWYI/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_Iasfsb1GBF3HH

Baking bread like this is super-easy, but takes a bit of patience because you have to start at least the night before. Here's a < 2 minute walkthrough from America's Test Kitchen with all the detail you need for a basic, delicious white loaf.

No no no no no.
I've never made bread in a cast iron skillet, however, I have made bread for something like 18 years, about every kind of bread you can think of, and you don't typically cover bread when you bake it. It usually continues to rise a little in the oven when you first put it in, and if you covered the top of it, you may very well end up with bread stuck to the top and bottom. The only time I have ever heard of covering bread while baking, or ever covered it, was when I made campfire bread, and a few times when the tops of the bread darkened too fast, and I stuck some foil over it towards the end of the baking process.
