Gold
Adirondack Life, “Conservation’s Dark Side” by Amy Godine, January/February 2015
Of all the entries in this category, I learned the most from this one. Well-researched work, and the writing is light (but not flippant) and tight.
Silver
Texas Highways, “Celebration of Independence” by James L. Haley, March 2015
This is a pro at work. Thoughtful yet easy to read.
Bronze
Cottage Life, “Who’s That Man?” by Charlotte Gray, Joseph Boyden and Douglas Hunter, Summer 2015
This is informative and is a different take on what’s probably a well-worn idea.
