Abbie Farwell Brown

She was the driving force behind the newly created school newspaper, The Jabberwock, named by Brown after the poem by Lewis Carroll.

Her In the Days of Giants (1902) featured stories from Norse mythology and remained a standard text in libraries for several generations.

Tales of the Red Children (1909), co-written with James MacIntosh Bell, featured Canadian Indian folklore.

[1][2] Original stories by Brown include The Lonesomest Doll (1901), The Flower Princess (1904), John of the Woods (1909), and The Lucky Stone (1914).

Daniels set Brown's war poem "Peace with a Sword" to music and it was performed by the Handel and Haydn Society in 1917.
