Reviews

"""Throughout history, and across virtually all peoples, there has been continuous participation of women combatants in armed conflict. This work aims to highlight their contribution to defending their land, people, and ideals. ... This work serves as a reminder that female combatants have participated in armed conflict throughout history and across nations. Short entries are well suited for curious readers and for middle- or high-school researchers looking for an introduction to the depth and breadth of female involvement in war.""--Booklist"
