Description
"We've heard of Alexander the Great. We've heard of Ivan the Terrible. But what was so great about Alexander? What was so terrible about Ivan? Spanning centuries of history in a culturally diverse framework--from ancient India to nineteenth-century Hawaii, and with a balanced focus on notorious women rulers as well as male--[this book] takes a humorous look at some of the most glorious and notorious figures in history through the lens of the nicknames by [which] they're remembered"--Provided by publisher.
