About the Author

Helen Pugh has long believed that it’s important to rescue historical women from obscurity and make sure that "herstory" is taught alongside "history"!
Her interest in South America and the Incas began in 2006, when she first went to Ecuador. Then, from 2011 she lived there for 7 continuous years, 6 in the Amazon Region and 1 in Quito. Her children are half Ecuadorian, which was another driving force for exploring South American heritage. She experienced domestic violence and very long and traumatic legal battles in Ecuador so can relate to some of the Inca women in the book on that front.
Helen studied Spanish and Italian at university and has a lifelong passion for history, especially that of historical women who made history, but have been sidelined.

Hi Kent,
I didn't get a notification about your comment and rarely scroll to the end of this page so have only just seen it!
Thank you for your question and I'm glad you enjoyed the book. While it isn't the focus of my research, I do know that the Spaniards sailed all the way around Chile and Argentina at least for some of their travels (for more, see https://www.britannica.com/biography/Ferdinand-Magellan/Discovery-of-the-Strait-of-Magellan). I believe that is how they got ships to the west coast of South America. Hope that helps!

I loved your book! One question. How did all the Spanish ships get on the west coast? Nowhere do I read they sailed around the continent. Why did they start from Panama Which was on the east side?
