Rosalie Edge (1877-1962) was the first American woman to achieve national renown as a conservationist and is known for establishing Hawk Mountain Sanctuary, the world's first refuge for birds of prey. Furmansky draws on Edge’s personal papers and on interviews with family members and associates to portray an implacable, indomitable personality.
