Reviews

The Times
'The individual tales of women who took up arms on the battlefield - and there are many - bring great life and colour to the page . . . An important contribution to the field of military history'
Wavell Reviews
Outstanding . . . Percy's text is hard-hitting, and evidence-based
BBC History Magazine
Fascinating . . . in evidencing women's long military service, Percy combats . . . the final exclusion - from the historial record
Bookseller
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
The Monthly Magazine
Magnificently researched, Forgotten Warriors opens up and heightens intellectual landscapes . . . it could not be more timely
TLS
Ambitious, wide-ranging and learned
New York Journal of Books
Truly impressive and rigorously researched, this is a book that should be included in all libraries
Wall Street Journal
Lively and vivid
