If you love cheese the way we think you love cheese, then your kitchen just isn't complete without these beautiful and informative books from acclaimed author - and cheese expert - Laura Werlin.

Laura Werlin has appeared on Martha Stewart Living Television, "Cooking Live!" with Sara Moulton, "San Francisco's Bay Café" and she also writes a weekly column about cheese for Contra Costa Times. Werlin also writes for national magazines, including Cooking Light, Cooking Pleasures, Fine Cooking, Saveur, Country Living and Self.

In "The All American Cheese and Wine Book," Ms. Werlin gives us the ultimate guide to pairing California's incomparable wines to California's world-class cheeses. Inside is a smorgasbord of information, ranging from an in-depth overview of the seven basic styles of cheese - how they're made and what their flavor qualities are - to what types of wines will bring out the best in each category of cheese.

Speaking of great pairs, the second book, "The New American Cheese," looks as good on your coffee table as it does in the kitchen. It provides a comprehensive look at the art and craft of cheesemaking in this country. Ms. Werlin profiles more than 50 of America's top cheesemakers and offers 80 inventive recipes showcasing the new cheeses available today. Beautiful images from professional photographer Martin Jacobs help illustrate tasty recipes and informative profiles of the country's best cheesemakers.

Each book is $32.95. But if you buy the set - and they do make a lovely pair - the reduced price for both is only $59.95! Shipping and handling are included.
