Pam asked this question about The Giver of Stars:
"The Bookwoman of Troublesome Creek" is about Cussy Mary Carter who was the last BLUE WOMAN of Kentucky and was one of the Pack Horse Women. Moyes's book will get more publicity and may even be better written but I'd hate for the first one to be overlooked because the info on the "Blue" people was as interesting as the Pack Horse story. Is Mary's story included in this book? If not, then it should be read also.
Chris No and I agree. I hope “The Bookwoman of Troublesome Creek” is found as more people read about these amazing women.
