A founder of National Council of Women of Canada.Author of best selling books on child health & development.A founding editor of The Ladies Home Journal & popular columnist.A founding editor of The American Journal of Nursing and Canadian Nurse .
In 1878, at the age of 29, Elizabeth Robinson Scovil decided she did not want to spend the rest of her life serving tea and cucumber sandwiches at Anglican Church events in Fredericton, New Brunswick. Overcoming her mother's fears and disapproval, she applied and was accepted for a new two-year nurses' training program at Massachusetts General Hospital.She began writing and publishing on nursing and nursing education while still a student. On graduation she launched into practice and within a few years was Superintendent of nurses' training at Newport Rhode Island Hospital. A Nurse for All Seasons is the vocational and intellectual biography of this remarkable woman, a woman who strode out of the Victorian Era on a mission that helped open the way for the feminist movement and the rise of gender equality as a fundamental human right.Author, Virginia Bliss Bjerkelund, introduced her Great Aunt as a main character in the non-fiction novel, Meadowlands . She has now given us the rest of the story. With extensive quotation from her books, journalism, lectures, and letters, the significance of Elizabeth Robinson Scovil's life and legacy comes alive in this biography and takes its place in the history of nursing and in the heritage of progressive social change
