A very entertaining story with a really good heroine, relying on brains more than brawn. The writing style is rather pedantic and hyperbolic with a 1930s air,  but persevere and you'll soon get involved in the tale.The introduction makes a ridiculous statement, but don't let it put you off the story:"Throughout history, great warriors fought great wars for great purposes.  Their names became known for the ages:  Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, Washington, Napoleon, Eisenhower.  Their successes or failures shaped the present as we know it.  It is rare when an individual of modest status, seeking neither  fame nor fortune, neither glory nor riches..."Hah! As if at least three of those named did not seek all of those!
