Entertaining The Braganzas - Jenifer Roberts

NZ$24.00

Entertaining the Braganzas tells the remarkable story of the unlikely friendship between Queen Maria I of Portugal and William Stephens, a Cornish-born, illegitimate Protestant who became one of Europe’s wealthiest industrialists. In 1788, Maria stayed at Stephens’s home during a visit to his successful glass factory north of Lisbon. Against the rigid hierarchy of the Portuguese court, their meeting offers a fascinating glimpse into royal life, absolute monarchy and European society on the eve of the French Revolution.
