Anna Larsdotter's book offers numerous vivid portraits of women who fought in wars from the 17th to the 20th centuries: British Army soldier Hannah Snell, anti-slavery icon Harriet Tubman, nurse and outstanding military medical organizer Florence Nightingale, founder of the Women's Shock Battalion Maria Bochkareva, Vietnam War veteran Linda Van Devanter, and others.

Using a broad historical context, Anna Larsdotter discusses women's quest for freedom, their struggle against deep-seated societal prejudices, and the changes achieved as a result of this struggle.
