More about the book

The book explores the significant yet often overlooked roles of women during the Peninsular War of 1808-14, highlighting their representation as both heroines and victims in the conflict's iconography. By focusing on figures like Agustina Zaragosa Domenech, the author challenges the traditional historical narrative that prioritizes military and political events, aiming to bring visibility to women's experiences and contributions during this tumultuous period.
