Litchfield Hills Books has served the rolling countryside of northwest Connecticut since 1992, embodying the quiet literary character of one of New England's best-preserved Colonial towns. The store occupies a white clapboard building on the historic North Street, its interior warmed by a wood-burning fireplace that crackles through the colder months. Shelves are stocked with an exceptional selection of nature writing, from Thoreau and Muir to contemporary voices exploring ecology and conservation. The regional history section chronicles the Litchfield Hills from pre-colonial times through the present, drawing both locals and visiting history enthusiasts. A small cafe in the back serves house-blend coffee, homemade scones, and seasonal soups, making it a favorite lunch stop for hikers and leaf-peepers exploring the surrounding countryside.
