Wish There Was More
8 April 2002
Format:Hardcover
This is the kind of book we all should read, regardless of age. It is well researched, well annotated and well written. I bought it for my wife, a reading specialist, for Easter, and wound up reading it before she got her hands on it. It would be great to have an older version, filled with more info, etc. For now, however, I'll take what I can get!

Packhorse Librarians of Kentucky
31 Mar 2002
Format:Hardcover
This was a new piece of history that sadly, I was not taught in school. I applaud the ladies and gent who were dedicated to bringing literacy to the masses at all cost. The $28 salary opened doors for the care of their families, it was the love of reading and the people that kept them going back day after day.
Everyone in education or who just loves a good straight forward look at history MUST read this book.

Down cut shin creek: the pack horse librarians of Kentucky
26 Jun 2010
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I drive bookmobiles in Colorado, so I am very interested in books about mobile library service. This is about getting materials to the outlying areas of Kentucky during the U.S. Depression. I should never complain again when my laptop service goes down.
