Daughter of a Daughter of a Queen by Sarah Bird
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Cathy Williams a slave with roots to an Amazon Queen from Africa who uses her heritage as a guiding hand in all she does. With the strength of her forefathers, she is first assigned to help the cook during the end of the Civil War who is General Sheridan's personal cook. From there she heads out west to join the Buffalo Soldiers from 1866 to 1868.
I really enjoyed this book, women have been going to war and doing everything men have done for centuries. It is wonderful that writers give women the credit we deserve for the contributions we made to history.
