Miss Morgan’s Book Brigade PDF by Janet Skeslien Charles is an outstanding historical fiction novel about a compelling story of Jessie Kit Carson. She is a librarian at the New York Public Library in 1918.
Jessie is recruited by Ann Morgan, daughter of JP Morgan, to join The American Committee For devastated France known as Card. She is to travel to France to establish a library.
70 years later, Wendy Peterson, and inspiring writer, stumbles upon documents, referring to Jessie and Card. She is intrigued as she also works for New York Public Library. She wants to write a story about Jessie and Card.
Miss Morgan’s Book Brigade is written in two time lines 1918 (Before WWI) and 1987 (After WWII). The women of the Card are stationed 40 miles from the front and endure the daily devastation of the war. Jessie does her best with what she has. She even builds a library from a burned out ambulance. She establishes a children’s library and has readings with the children.
The brave women of the Card did more than bring books to this ravaged country. They also helped evacuate people and tend to their wounds.
I really enjoyed reading this fascinating novel. It was enlightening to read a book about a subject I knew little about.
An outstanding historical fiction novel not to be missed.
