The train taking nineteen-year-old teacher Christy
Huddleston from her home in Asheville ,
North Carolina Smoky Mountain
But as Christy struggles to find acceptance in her new home,
some see her - and her one-room school - as a threat to their way of life. Her
faith is challenged and her heart is torn between two strong men with
conflicting views about how to care for the families of the Cove.
Yearning to make a difference, will Christy's determination
and devotion be enough?
Bio:
Catherine Marshall (1914-1983), The New York Times best-selling
author of 30 books, is best known for her novel Christy. Based on the
life of her mother, Christy captured the hearts of millions and
became a popular CBS television series. Around the kitchen table at Evergreen
Farm, as her mother reminisced, Catherine probed for details and insights into
the rugged lives of these Appalachian highlanders. Catherine shared the story
of her husband, Dr. Peter Marshall, Chaplain of the United States Senate, in A Man
Called Peter. A decade after Dr. Marshall's untimely death, Catherine
married Leonard LeSourd, Executive Editor of Guideposts, forging a dynamic writer-editor partnership. A
beloved inspirational writer and speaker, Catherine's enduring career spanned
four decades and reached over 30 million readers.

I read Christy a long time ago, but I'd love to win a copy of it. I'm long overdue for a re-read. I've never seen the TV series.
