Threads of Time (Paperback)

Paperback. Threads of Time: The Lake Forest Shop and the Women Who Wove Its Legacy is a historical photo book that chronicles the remarkable century-long story of the Lake Forest Sports Shop, a cornerstone of Lake Forest's Historic Market Square. Founded in 1922 by Margaret Baxter Foster, the shop became a family tradition carried forward by her daughter-in-law, Adair Foster, who assumed leadership in 1949. In 1980, Adair's daughter, Ellen Stirling, took the helm, guiding the beloved institution into its 100th year of family ownership. Through vivid images and compelling narrative, the book celebrates the vision, resilience, and legacy of three generations of women who shaped both the shop and the community it serves.
