More about the book

The narrative centers on Elizabeth, a Hungarian princess born in 1207, whose life embodies themes of sacrifice and charity. Betrothed at four and married by fourteen, she faced widowhood by twenty. Despite her royal status, Elizabeth chose to renounce her wealth, dedicating her life to helping the poor and establishing hospitals. Her legacy as a symbol of Christian charity endures long after her untimely death at twenty-four, reflecting Kingsley's commitment to social issues through his writing.
