About the author

Katherine Keene Galt was an American author remembered for writing fiction for young readers in the early 1900s. She is associated with The Girl Scouts Rally; or, Rosanna Wins, a novel that centers on friendship, teamwork, and the spirit of girls' organizations at the time.

Her surviving public record online appears to be fairly limited, but the work that is readily documented places her within the tradition of wholesome juvenile series fiction popular in the United States in the early 20th century. Readers coming to her today will likely find a window into the values, adventures, and social world that shaped books for girls of that era.
