Store History

The oldest independent book store in the Twin Cities, The Bookcase has roots dating back to the early 1950s in downtown Minneapolis. Legend has it that when Nicollet Mall was under construction in the 1960s, the owners of The Bookcase made the decision to move the store out to Wayzata. It has been there ever since. Our current location at 607 East Lake Street was once the home of Supplee's Community Drug, a popular Wayzata institution for many years. It is the second (and longest) location The Bookcase has had in downtown Wayzata. After being owned for many years in the 1970s and 1980s by Gail See, and then by Peggy Burnet beginning in the early 1990s, The Bookcase was purchased by Charlie Leonard in the spring of 2008.

Gear West & The Bookcase welcome Christopher McDougall

 

Born to RunGear West and The Bookcase are pleased to welcome Christopher McDougall, author of the bestselling book Born to Run.

The event will be on Wednesday, September 15 at 6:30 in the evening at Gear West in Long Lake (1786 West Wayzata Boulevard).

McDougall traveled to Mexico's Copper Canyon to discover the running secrets of the Tarahumara Indians. For centuries, the Tarahumara have practiced techniques that allow them to run hundreds of miles without rest. How do they do it? That's exactly what McDougall wanted to know.

Part cultural anthropology mixed with personal memoir and the history of running,Born to Run is "hilariously funny, weird, and nonstop fun to read. Runners can sink their teeth into it," says Bill Rodgers, a four-time winner of the Boston Marathon.

Christopher McDougall is a former war correspondent for the Associated Press and is now a contributing editor for Men's Health. A three-time National Magazine Award finalist, he has written for Esquire, The New York Times Magazine,Outside, Men's Journal, and New York. He does his own running among the Amish farms around his home in rural Pennsylvania. 

Tickets are $5.00, and are available at either Gear West or The Bookcase. 

This is an event that you won't want to miss!
