Reviews

Compelling, deeply researched, and beautifully written. When Women Ruled the Pacific addresses an area of history that has been underserved by existing literature. Joy Schulz has found a really intriguing historical situation with the case of the four queens and has written an excellent book. -Emily Manktelow, author of Gender, Power, and Sexual Abuse in the Pacific: Rev. Simpson's Improper Liberties A smartly written text that makes wide-ranging use of a robust set of primary archives. Joy Schulz's impressive command of the vast and varied primary sources for the figures she examines is evident throughout the text. More, Schulz's multidisciplinary approach informs and permeates her study. -Jennifer Thigpen, author of Island Queens and Mission Wives: How Gender and Empire Remade Hawai'i's Pacific World
