Happy 20th Birthday, Landmark Booksellers!

Owners Joel and Carol Tomlin at Landmark Booksellers

Congratulations to Landmark Booksellers, Franklin, Tenn., which celebrated its 20th anniversary on Wednesday. The party included entertainment, refreshment, and appearances by authors Karen Kingsbury, Kathie Lee Gifford, and Brad Thor.

"The celebration was a true testament to Landmark Booksellers' enduring appeal and its unique place in both literary and local history," the store wrote. "The shop, which famously inspired Karen Kingsbury's bestselling novel The Bridge, is housed in Franklin's oldest commercial structure, a building dating back to circa 1808 with a storied past that includes serving as a bank, a factory store, and even, legend has it, a place where Andrew Jackson paid his troops. As Joel and Carol Tomlin reflected on their journey, they expressed immense gratitude for the 'good memories, new acquaintances and friends from around the world, wonderfully rich books, interesting events, and the opportunity to enjoy every day together doing something we love.' It was a night that perfectly encapsulated the magic and rich history that Landmark Booksellers brings to Franklin."
