I read a book about her ages ago. I'm sure there are better ones now.

She and what she lived through were really fascinating. I think her name is something most people know, but more people would become interested in history if stories like these received greater attention and less emphasis was placed on "X and Y country fought Z war from this year to this year..."

Teach stories with context.
