Inspiration for this engaging novel came from Eleanor Roosevelt’s idea for establishing mobile libraries. Set in Kentucky in 1937, three brave women initiate a horseback library. They experience many social issues, segregation, domestic violence, and injustices within the coal mines. The joy and help that the three bring to these mountain people also gives them the strength to solve their own personal problems. This is a story not to miss!
