Njinga of Angola : Africa's warrior queen /Linda M. Heywood.
"Though largely unknown in the West, the seventeenth-century African queen Njinga was one of the most multifaceted rulers in history, a woman who rivaled Queen Elizabeth I in political cunning and military prowess. In this landmark book, based on nine years of research and drawing from missionary accounts, letters, and colonial records, Linda Heywood reveals how this legendary queen skillfully navigated - and ultimately transcended - the ruthless, male-dominated power struggles of her time."--Provided by the publisher.
