Amazon Warriors [Hardcover]

Women have had their place in history, but none have created as much of an impact as the classical Amazon warriors of Ancient Greece. An entire culture whose foundation was based on an all-female society, the Amazons were both industrious and intelligent as they participated in warfare, founded cities, and kept a peaceful and productive way of life. Author A.P. Bristol has put together his findings that trace the Amazons and other peripheral cultures of women warriors in ancient history, possibly as far back as 2000 B.C.E. Astoundingly well-written with helpful references to other authors and websites, Amazon Warriors gives a fascinating look into an amazing and unique culture.
