Rosalie Edge, Hawk of Mercy: The Activist Who Saved Nature from the Conservationists AUTH-6660161 Ten full-length testsRosalie Edge (1877 1962) was the first American woman to achieve national renown as a conservationist. Dyana Z. Furmansky draws on Edge's personal papers and on interviews with family members and associates to portray an implacable, indomitable personality whose activism earned her the names "Joan of Arc" and "hellcat." A progressive New York socialite and veteran suffragist, Edge did not join the conservation movement until her early fifties.
