Agrippina 'Atrocious and Ferocious' : The Thinking Girl's Treasury of Dastardly Dames

Ambitious Roman empress Agrippina murdered and married her way to the throne--and to being declared a goddess. She made many enemies, including her own son. But was she really all that atrocious? Gorgeous illustrations and an intelligent, evocative story bring to life a real dastardly dame whose lust for power lost her the love of her people, and eventually, her life.
