¿My hope is that this book will inspire as I have been inspired. It¿s a love letter to the importance of history and about how, without knowing where we come from - truthfully and entirely - we cannot know who we are.¿
Warrior Queens & Quiet Revolutionaries is a celebration of unheard and under-heard women¿s history. Within these pages you¿ll meet nearly 1000 women whose names deserve to be better known: from the Mothers of Invention and the trailblazing women at the Bar; warrior queens and pirate commanders; the women who dedicated their lives to the natural world or to medicine; those women of courage who resisted and fought for what they believed; to the unsung heroes of stage, screen and stadium.
It is global, travelling the world and spanning all periods of time. It is also an intensely moving detective story of the author¿s own
