A face launched a thousand ships. A queen was turned into history’s most infamous seductress. And a 29-year-old warrior rode into battle against the British Empire with her son strapped to her back.


Connor Tomlinson and Carter Roy dig into the real stories behind Helen of Troy, Cleopatra, and Lakshmi Bai, the Rani of Jhansi. Each woman became a legend, but somewhere along the way, history got her story wrong. What they actually did is even more extraordinary than the myths we remember.
