She grew up in and around the University of Melbourne. Bassett received most of her education at home from a governesses, although when she was 17 for three months she attended a girls' grammar school run by the Church of England. She became her father's secretary, but managed to attend history lectures at the university, particularly those of Ernest Scott. Scott encouraged her historical studies, and in 1913 she published a note in the ''University Review'' on the founding of the University of Melbourne. During World War I she was a secretary to various military hospital directors, and was transferred to England in 1916. On the way, her ship, the ''Arabia'' was torpedoed and she was forced to escape in a life boat. After the war she returned home and met and married Walter E. Bassett, an engineer. They were married on 25 January 1923, and had several children. As her children grew older, Bassett began to write in earnest.
