Very interesting book that takes place in the 1930's in the Kentucky Appalachians. Growing up in western Virginia, I had heard about the hard trial of the Appalachian people and I had also heard tale about the Kentucky Blue People as well. I never heard about the Pack Horse Library Project though. Throwing all 3 of these things together is quite a feat but the author handles it superbly. I was very immersed in everything our main character, Cussy Mary, went through. Look forward to more books by this author.
