The Road to Now
The Road to Now@Road_To_Now·
Bookstores have always been more than a place to buy books. They’ve been hubs of ideas, conversation, and community. 📚 In this episode, historian Evan Friss joins us to explore the surprising history of America’s bookstores, from the colonial era to today.

@Tripp61018 Thanks! Much appreciated. And my local bookseller does have (I think one) signed first edition. You can order it here: parenthesesbooks.com/product/the-bo… There's a field that asks if you'd like it personalized. If you just write "signed first edition" I'll make sure that you get the copy.

@EvanFriss no words describe the joy I got from The Bookshop. Well done. Was wondering if you had any signed first editions I could purchase - feel free to follow and DM. I collect signed first editions of books I love. Thanks a lot. Amazing work!

@EvanFriss Just finished reading 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘱 and loved its wit and insight. Here's a photo of the book with Slovenia's still-wintry Julian Alps in the background--and a bookstore cat in the nearby historic town of Radovljica:

@EvanFriss I'm reading your book on the history of American bookstore. How come you didn't mention Mary Titcomb ?

Here, @EvanFriss, like booksellers before him, sold me on the fascinating history of bookselling, from humble beginnings to book wagons and sidewalk hawkers to indies and chains, ups and downs, the avant garde and radical. Bookselling is a microcosm of America and a lovely story.
