The Pirate Queen by Ariel Lawhon

Format & Condition: Hardback, New
Genre: Historical Fiction

In sixteenth-century Ireland, Grace O’Malley refuses to accept the limited future her noble family has planned for her. Determined to command her own ships and protect her people, she becomes a formidable leader whose extraordinary life challenges the expectations of her time. From the bestselling author of The Frozen River, this sweeping adventure reimagines the life of Ireland’s legendary pirate queen and was named a New York Times Editors’ Choice. I recommend it for its fascinating historical inspiration, daring heroine, and compelling combination of adventure, motherhood, loyalty, and women claiming power.
