Join us to discuss Miss Morgan's Book Brigade, by Janet Skeslien Charles - author of The New York Times and internationally bestselling author of The Paris Library.

Based on the true story of Jessie Carson. In 1918, Jessie Carson takes a leave of absence from the New York Public Library to work for the American Committee for Devastated France. Founded by millionaire Anne Morgan, this group of international women help rebuild destroyed French communities just miles from the front. Upon arrival, Jessie strives to establish something that the French have never seen—children’s libraries. Based on the extraordinary little-known history of the women who received the Croix de Guerre medal for courage under fire, Miss Morgan's book brigade is a tribute to the resilience of the human spirit, the power of literature, and ultimately the courage it takes to make a change.
