As a history nerd, I'm always seeking out lesser-known figures, and Queen Amanirenas did not disappoint. History Nerds' concise yet informative style brings this Nubian warrior queen to life. The book delves into her strategic brilliance and unwavering defiance against the Roman Empire, a refreshing change from the typical Eurocentric narratives. While brief, it packs a punch, showcasing Amanirenas' strength and resilience. This is a must-read for anyone interested in African history.
