Synopsis
Alphabetically from Absh Khatun, 13th century Queen of Persia, to Dr. Sibongile Zungu, chief in 1993 of the South African Madlebe Tribe, independent scholar Jackson updates her book Women Who Ruled by adding those who have served in the last decade. The volume includes entries running from a paragraph to three pages a useful geographical chronology by century and b&w representations of rulers from Carthage's legendary founder Dido to Jenny Shipley, New Zealand's Prime Minister since 1997. Includes some powers behind the throne like Diane de Poitiers but not Marie Antoinette or Eva Peron.
