Cold River Radio Show

Cold River Radio Show

Theater in the Wood, Intervale, NH

We will be at the June Cold River Radio Show selling books in the lobby for Howard Frank Mosher's final book Points North. We are also selling tickets all week here at the bookstore. Tickets are $20.

Points North is both humorous and heartbreaking, and, without a wasted word, immerses the reader in Kingdom County, a sliver of America where cold waters harbor brook trout, small communities fight tooth and nail to maintain their signature individualism, and explorations of family history sometimes lead to unsettling revelations.
