Summary:
Because Isabella de' Medici was close to her father, Cosimo, she was allowed to live an autonomous life apart from her abusive husband. After Cosimo's death, his spiteful eldest son, Francesco, reneged on the inheritance Cosimo left Isabella and her children, and then sanctioned the murder of both Isabella and her sister-in-law Leonora. This account of a lesser-known Medici daughter also describes an extraordinary woman who paid the ultimate price for flouting her era's traditional gender roles. 2008.
