Book Club | “Half Broke Horses” by Jeannette Walls

Meet the no-nonsense Lily Casey Smith, who was breaking horses at age six and teaching in a one-room school by age 15. She survived floods, droughts, tornadoes, tragedies and the Great Depression. Jeannette Walls tells her grandmother’s story as a “true-life novel,” which is a prequel to The Glass Castle, the best-selling memoir and movie about Walls’ traumatic childhood.

Join the monthly book club for coffee and a great discussion led by James Museum docent
Helen Huntley.
