Kim Michele Richardson will join us in a Zoom Meeting to discuss her book titled "The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek".
This novel is inspired by the Kentucky Pack Horse Library Project of the 1930's. It is the story of the brave packhorse librarians who courageously delivered books and magazines, along with kindness and concern to the hill people of the Appalachias of Kentucky. The book is also a testament to the true blue-skinned people of Kentucky. As Karen Abbott, New York Times bestselling author of Liar Temptress Soldier Spy states, this book is "a timeless and significant tale about poverty, intolerance and how books can bring hope and light to even the darkest pocket of history."
