Every year the Zeeuws Tijdschrift holds a competition for the best book about the province of Zeeland, or by the best writer from Zeeland. This year we entered our publication Zelandia Comitatus by Dick Blonk & Joan Blonk-van der Wijst.
We are proud to announce that out of 43 entries Zelandia Comitatus has made it to the 2011 Longlist together with nine other books. In October of this year we will find out whether or not we have also made it to the shortlist.
