A lot! It's not a biography of these women but a study of how they were written about by their contemporaries and near-contemporaries (things like Shakespeare's plays, Mirrors for Magistrate, Sir Thomas More and Vergil's histories) and heavily academic. It is super interesting to see the historiography of these women and see how they were seen in the 15th and 16th centuries.
