Description
An amazing woman from Irish history who once divorced her husband by shouting at him through a window, shocked the entirety of Queen Elizabeth I's court besieged more than one castle to avenge a loved one!

The Irish pirate queen had her name and her personhood stripped away by an olde English dude who thought her Irish name should sound more palatable.
