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: https://t.co/oUa1ybcVbz

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 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:

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.
