Miner exposed human trafficking in New York City, while simultaneously fighting for protections for her \"girls.\"\u003cbr\u003eAs the metropolis' first probation officer, Maude uncovered rampant sexploitation in the city and corruption in the court system. She sought to rescue the most downtrodden of her gender - the neglected, abused and runaways, offering them tools for empowerment at a time when many women were regarded as little more than property, before being entrusted with a vote. Her programs raised eyebrows and public awareness across the country. During World War I, she even engaged in a skirmish with the United States military.\u003cbr\u003eAnd later, along with humanitarian husband Alexander Hadden, Maude instigated another improbable campaign: persuading world leaders to answer a call to peace. Together the duo launched projects geared to promoting global understanding; some still in operation with headquarters in New York, Florida and Washington, DC.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Linda Walls\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8496454878\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798496454872\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/21\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 284\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.64d","brand":"Linda Walls","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45064734015743,"sku":"9798496454872","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_167c7d74-ec7f-4219-ab90-4c598e5a8bf5.jpg?v=1712124907","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/saving-girls-and-the-linda-walls-9798496454872","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
