Set against the backdrop of Depression-era America, the narrative follows Alice Wright, who escapes her restrictive life in England by marrying Bennett Van Cleve.

Led by the independent Margery, they become the Horseback Librarians of Kentucky, facing dangers while fostering friendship, love, and the transformative power of literacy. This poignant tale is inspired by true events.
