For the last several years, Nancy Baggett has been on an amazing journey. She has traveled throughout the Northwest, Southwest, Midwest, Northeast, and South, all in search of cookies. She visited small-town sweet shops, farmer's markets and country fairs, country inns and bed-and-breakfasts, and chic urban cookie boutiques. She wheedled recipes out of home cooks, chefs, innkeepers, and bakers, rummaged through file boxes, and leafed through handwritten notebooks. She pored over community cookbooks and combed through vintage cookbooks in rare book rooms and private collections. Along the way, she found between 25,000 and 30,000 cookies to come up with the best versions of our national favorites.
