Chris’s Pick from Highland Books
Chris owns Highland Books with his wife Amanda. When he was in high school he used to frequent Highland Books and became acquainted with the owners. He once told them to let him know if they ever wanted to sell because it would be his dream to own a bookstore. Today he does. (Highland Books)
As a High School Drama student I had the great pleasure of appearing in the lead role of our production of Look Homeward Angels. To this day I’ve always had a soft spot for this writer and his legacy.
