May 2009 find you and yours happy and in good health.

With a new year, come new resolutions (at least for some of us). Of course, finding the perfect resolution is easier said than done. Getting to the gym more often – too predictable. Keeping a cleaner house – too boring.  Let the University of Nebraska Press books come to the rescue:

Want to learn more about wine? Robert Camuto’s Corkscrewed: Adventures in the New French Wine Country, in which the author details his move from the United States to France, and his evolution from wine novice to wine lover.

Are you thinking about taking up running? Rachel Toor, avid runner and author of Personal Record: A Love Affair with Running will provide the inspiration.

Do you want to take a once-in-a-lifetime trip? Study up on Antarctica in The Entire Earth and Sky, by Leslie C. Roberts and about bicycling through the American West in Bicycling Beyond the Divide by Daryl Farmer. 

Do you want to read more this coming year? Us too. Browse our web site for ideas … and remember that the University of Nebraska Press spring collection is almost here…
