520    "Cussy Mary Carter is the last of her kind, her skin the 
       color of a blue damselfly in these dusty hills. But that 
       doesn't mean she's got nothing to offer. As a member of 
       the Pack Horse Library Project, Cussy delivers books to 
       the hill folk of Troublesome, hoping to spread learning in
       these desperate times. But not everyone is so keen on 
       Cussy's family or the Library Project, and the 
       hardscrabble Kentuckians are quick to blame a Blue for any
       trouble in their small town. The Book Woman of Troublesome
       Creek is a story of raw courage, fierce strength, and one 
       woman's determination to bring a little bit of hope to the
       darkly hollers"--|cProvided by publisher 
520    1936. Tucked deep into the woods of Troublesome Creek, KY,
       lives blue-skinned Cussy Carter, the last living female of
       the rare Blue People ancestry. She joins Roosevelt's Pack 
       Horse Library Project of Kentucky and becomes a traveling 
       librarian, riding across slippery creek beds and up 
       treacherous mountains on her mule to deliver books and 
       other reading material to the impoverished hill people of 
       Eastern Kentucky. Along her route, Cussy faces doubters at
       every turn, but is determined to bring the joy of books to
       the hardscrabble Kentuckians. -- adapted from back cover
