&quot;The Amazons&quot;, written by Guy Cadogan Rothery in 1910, is one of the very few books ever published on these legendary female warriors.&nbsp;<br /><br />The world of the Amazons lies scattered between legend and historical fact. Greek writings give many details about the geography, history and anthropology of the Amazon nation and the Athenians in particular were most insistent about the historical reality of a nation consisting only of women warriors.
