Synopsis A Warrior's Heart by : Micky Ward

From his first bout at the age of seven, Micky Ward was known first and foremost for giving as good as he got, and for leaving absolutely everything he had in the ring. When he fought, quitting was never an option. It was that indomitable spirit that would allow him to survive, battle against, and overcome the harsh realities that he faced every day of his life. From the rough streets of Lowell, Massachusetts, to the blood and sweat of the international fight game, to the bright lights and adulation of Hollywood, this is a rousing, moving, tragic tale.

Synopsis Women Warriors by : Pamela D. Toler

Who says women don’t go to war? From Vikings and African queens to cross-dressing military doctors and WWII Russian fighter pilots, these are the stories of women for whom battle was not a metaphor. The woman warrior is always cast as an anomaly—Joan of Arc, not GI Jane. But women, it turns out, have always gone to war. In this fascinating and lively world history, Pamela Toler not only introduces us to women who took up arms, she also shows why they did it and what happened when they stepped out of their traditional female roles to take on other identities. These are the stories of women who fought because they wanted to, because they had to, or because they could. Among the warriors you’ll meet are: * Tomyris, ruler of the Massagetae, who killed Cyrus the Great of Persia when he sought to invade her lands * The West African ruler Amina of Hausa, who led her warriors in a campaign of territorial expansion for more than 30 years * Boudica, who led the Celtic tribes of Britain into a massive rebellion against the Roman Empire to avenge the rapes of her daughters * The Trung sisters, Trung Trac and Trung Nhi, who led an untrained army of 80,000 troops to drive the Chinese empire out of Vietnam * The Joshigun, a group of 30 combat-trained Japanese women who fought against the forces of the Meiji emperor in the late 19th century * Lakshmi Bai, Rani of Jhansi, who was regarded as the “bravest and best” military leader in the 1857 Indian Mutiny against British rule * Maria Bochkareva, who commanded Russia’s first all-female battalion—the First Women’s Battalion of Death—during WWII * Buffalo Calf Road Woman, the Cheyenne warrior who knocked General Custer off his horse at the Battle of Little Bighorn * Juana Azurduy de Padilla, a mestiza warrior who fought in at least 16 major battles against colonizers of Latin America and who is a national hero in Bolivia and Argentina today * And many more spanning from ancient times through the 20th century. By considering the ways in which their presence has been erased from history, Toler reveals that women have always fought—not in spite of being women but because they are women.

Synopsis Young Warriors by : Tamora Pierce

What makes a warrior? This gutsy collection of original short stories offers a variety of answers to the question with thoughtfulness, heart and the occasional wink. The characters in these stories range from archetypal 'take no prisoners' heroes to those who abhor violence. There are even a few who are utterly clueless at the outset and must discover what they are made of. The settings are as diverse as the warriors themselves: purely fantasy realms are represented, as well as medieval England, a mythical African plain, ancient Greece and Egypt, colonial India and folktale Russia, to name a few. Regardless of protagonist or locale, these stories will thrill and entertain readers. But most importantly, they will make a reader ask the warrior within: what would I fight for? Compiled by best-selling author Tamora Pierce and folklorist/author Josepha Sherman, 'Young Warriors' includes stories by some of today's most acclaimed and beloved fantasy and science-fiction authors for both adults and young adults.
