Sewn binding. Cloth over boards. 394 p. Peace and Conflict Resolution. Audience: General/trade. One Woman's Passion for Peace and Freedom: The Life of Mildred Scott Olmsted (Peace and Conflict Resolution) (Hardcover) by Margaret Hope Bacon This is a biography of Mildred Scott Olmsted, who travelled the world, drawing women into the struggle for peace. A protege of Jane Addams, she devoted her long life to building the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF). This biography of peace activist Mildred Scott Olmsted (1890-1990) is also a history of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF), an organization founded in 1915 that continues to work for global peace today. Bacon ( The Story of Quaker Women in America ), who helped Olsted sort her private papers and conducted many interviews with her during the last decade of her life, provides a wealth of detail in a portrait that does justice to this remarkable woman. Although Olmsted's energy, capacity for hard work, stubbornness and persistence enabled her to build and expand the WILPF, they also made her a driven and difficult person, in Bacon's view. Her long marriage to Allen Olmsted, also an activist for social justice, was punctuated by frequent quarreling, and her three children felt that their mother was distant. Photos.
