Book excerpt: This fully illustrated atlas of contemporary artisan cheeses and cheesemakers is the first reference of its kind. Organized by region and state, the atlas highlights 345 of the best cheesemakers in the U.S. today, most of them tiny, family-owned creameries. Each profile describes a cheesemaker; its history; its cheeses, whether from cow, sheep, or goat¿s milk; availability; location; details on cheesemaking processes; and suggestions for the best wine and beer pairings. The atlas captures America¿s genius for local artisan cheese: a capacity for adaptation, experimentation, and innovation, while following Old World artisanship and traditional methods. Author Roberts helped establish the Vermont Inst. for Artisan Cheese at the Univ. of VT.
