An important contribution to the field of military history' * The Times * Outstanding . . . Percy's text is hard-hitting, and evidence-based * Wavell Reviews * Fascinating . . . in evidencing women's long military service, Percy combats . . . the final exclusion - from the historial record * BBC History Magazine * Most people have heard of Boudicca and Joan of Arc. But as this brilliant, perspective-shattering book shows, the contributions of myriad other women who have fought on the frontlines of conflict over the past 2,000 years have routinely been suppressed * Bookseller *
