Abstract "This is a biography of Isabel Orleans-Bragança daughter of the last emperor of Brazil. Her story is told against the historic background of the role Isabel's own ancestors, especially royal women, played in the rise and fall of slavery. This is the story of one of the most famous, controversial, yet little known heroines in history"--Provided by publisher.
