It’s been quite a week for awards announcements here at Countryman. We congratulate Jeanette Hurt, whose The Cheeses of Wisconsin: A Culinary Travel Guide joins the ranks. Her book received second place in the Midwest Travel Writers Association’s Mark Twain Awards. For more information on the awards and the MTWA, visit their site.

On another note, Jeanette’s companion piece, The Cheeses of California: A Culinary Travel Guide is set to arrive at a store near you in April.
