    "A wonderful story about the ability of books not only to inspire, but also to rescue and restore. The characters are so richly drawn that they leap off the page... The meticulous research brings such a satisfying depth and authenticity to the narrative, and this is perfectly balanced by the compassion and humanity of the characters. I absolutely loved it!" --Ruth Hogan, bestselling author of The Keeper of Lost Things, "Charles ( The Paris Library ) follows up her bestselling debut with a dramatic story of war and literature in WWI France.... Charles packs Jessie's story with emotion...Bibliophiles are in for a treat." -- Publishers Weekly, "In this compelling ode to the astonishing power of libraries and librarians, readers are introduced to the intrepid, real-life heroine Jessie Carson who delivered hope along with books to children in war-torn France. Janet Skeslien Charles's latest novel is - to borrow the words of one of her own characters - 'unputdownable!'" --Marie Benedict, New York Times bestselling author of The Only Woman in the Room, "A compelling remembrance of real librarians who could very easily have been lost to history. Readers who like historical novels with strong women characters will enjoy." -- Library Journal, Praise for Janet Skeslien Charles's The Paris Library "As a Parisian, an ardent bookworm, and a longtime fan of the American Library in Paris, I devoured The Paris Library in one hungry gulp. It is charming and moving, with a perfect balance between history and fiction." --Tatiana de Rosnay, New York Times bestselling author of Sarah's Key "A fresh take on WWII France that will appeal to bibliophiles everywhere...an irresistible, compelling read." --Fiona Davis, national bestselling author of The Chelsea Girls "Well-researched, stirring, and rich with detail, The Paris Library is an ode to the importance of libraries, books, and the human connections we find within both." --Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Lost Names, "An astonishing novel of postwar WWI France with the beating heart of courageous women who change the world through books. . . and a moving tale of sacrifice, heroism, and inspired storytelling immersed in the power of books to change our lives." --Patti Callahan Henry, bestselling author of The Secret Book of Flora Lea, "A wonderful novel that will keep you absorbed for an entire weekend. It also might make you want to pull a few classics off your shelf to reread, which for me is always the sign of a good book." -- Bookreporter, Praise for The Paris Library "As a Parisian, an ardent bookworm, and a longtime fan of the American Library in Paris, I devoured The Paris Library in one hungry gulp. It is charming and moving, with a perfect balance between history and fiction." --Tatiana de Rosnay, New York Times bestselling author of Sarah's Key "A fresh take on WWII France that will appeal to bibliophiles everywhere...an irresistible, compelling read." --Fiona Davis, national bestselling author of The Chelsea Girls "Well-researched, stirring, and rich with detail, The Paris Library is an ode to the importance of libraries, books, and the human connections we find within both." --Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Lost Names, "Bursting with remarkable characters and filled with heart-in-mouth moments, Miss Morgan's Book Brigade is a hugely enjoyable read and an enthralling, emotional story rich in historical detail. . . . This wonderful book is a gift to the reader." --Liese O'Halloran Schwarz, author of What Could Be Saved, "Janet Skeslien Charles is that perfect writer, able to take a true nugget of history and weave it into a tale that grips you from page one. She has an alchemist's eye for tiny historical detail that shimmers under her pen. . . . A rich, glorious life-affirming tribute to literature and female solidarity. Simply unforgettable!" --Kate Thompson, author of The Wartime Book Club

    Synopsis
    From the New York Times bestselling author Janet Skeslien Charles and based on the true story of Jessie Carson--the American librarian who changed the literary landscape of France--this is "a moving tale of sacrifice, heroism, and inspired storytelling immersed in the power of books to change our lives" (Patti Callahan Henry, New York Times bestselling author). 1918: As the Great War rages, 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. She turns ambulances into bookmobiles and trains the first French female librarians. Then she disappears. 1987: When NYPL librarian and aspiring writer Wendy Peterson stumbles across a passing reference to Jessie Carson in the archives, she becomes consumed with learning her fate. In her obsessive research, she discovers that she and the elusive librarian have more in common than their work at New York's famed library, but she has no idea their paths will converge in surprising ways across time. 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 "rich, glorious, life-affirming tribute to literature and female solidarity. Simply unforgettable" (Kate Thompson, author of The Wartime Book Club ).
