Like a scene from Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows, Millrace Bookshop is on the second floor of a historic mill, picturesquely positioned on the bank of the Farmington River, in Farmington Connecticut. At one time, its enchanting setting inspired Millrace Books' owner Jan Owens to orchestrate with the community an entire larger-than-life Wind in the Willows party, complete with Toad, Ratty, mole and Badger.
