    An eye-opening account. Seacole’s determination is inspiring. The language is a bit old-fashioned, but very interesting.

  8. Pillarisetty Vijaya Akshitha

    An important historical perspective. I learned so much about the Crimean War. However, the narrative could be more engaging.

    A fascinating look into a life less ordinary. Seacole’s resilience shines through, though the writing style feels a bit dated.

  13. Debayan Maji

    A powerful story of a woman who defied expectations. Some parts are hard to read due to the racism she faced.
