Book Details
Flashing swords, firing guns, charging on horseback, planning strategies and talking peace… These women did it all, and how! Sweeping aside the myth that it takes a man to fight and rule and protect, they led from the front, went fearlessly into battle, fought against injustice, and took care of their people. Some were royalty, some ordinary – but all had remarkable courage and determination. These twelve warriors burst powerfully out through the dynamic energy of the visuals. Brief word portraits and snippets give a peek into their turbulent and fascinating lives.
