Good Tuesday morning! I have four University of Nebraska Press-centric links for you today:
Robert Camuto, author of Corkscrewed: Adventures in the New French Wine Country, met with Huffington Post blogger Louise McCready during his book tour last month. To read about Robert’s history with wine, the concept of wine as food and the way the terrain and climate in France affects its wines, read Louise’s blog post about Robert.
Speaking of blogs, Alan Zaremba, author of The Madness of March: Bonding and Betting with the Boys in Las Vegas, spent this weekend at the CAA men’s basketball tournament, and he blogged up a storm whilst on the sidelines. In addition to a play-by-play of the action, Alan describes the enthusiasm of a trio of student managers, his affinity for his alma mater (Albany), and the grace of one of the most talented players he sees all weekend. Check out his blog for more.
Alan was also on NPR’s Only a Game with Bill Littlefield this weekend. To listen to the interview, click here, then scroll down a bit and click on The Madness of March.
And finally, John Turnbull, author of The Global Game, has posted a guest blog on the New York Times web site, in which he builds a soccer team out of literary figures.
That’s it for this morning. Check back tomorrow for more links, news and other UNP tidbits.
