What is Women War Heroines about?

Spies, soldiers, and strategists: from time immemorial, women have played these wartime roles and more—protecting the home, fighting as visionaries and patriots, following the camps, and going to sea. You'll see how the women of ancient China rebelled at their unequal share in running the country; how Boudicca, the Celtic warrior queen, led a revolt against the cruel Roman army in 48 A.D.; and how Joan of Arc, with religious fervor, battled bravely against British forces. You'll also learn of dozens of other fearless heroines celebrated in song and verse. Includes illustrations from archives throughout the world. 208 pages, 19 b/w illus., 6 X 9 1/4.
