A Philanthropist, and A Reversion to Type (Esprios Classics) Josephine Daskam

Josephine Dodge Daskam, Mrs. Selden Bacon (February 17, 1876 - July 29, 1961) was an American writer of great versatility. She is chiefly known as a writer who made the point of having female protagonists. She wrote a series of juvenile mysteries, as well as works dealing with more serious themes. She published books of poetry, which were well received by critics; as noted by one critic, some of her poetry was set to music. She was published under the name "Josephine Daskam". She also wrote on women's issues and women's roles as well. She was a pioneer in the Girl Scouts movement and compiled the guidebook used by that organization.
