Summary:
"Mira Bai was a Hindu mystic and poet. She was a follower of the Hindu god Krishna, and today some people celebrate her as a saint. The legacy of Marie-Antoinette can be problematic. As queen of France, she was not well liked by many, but she held a considerable amount of power in Europe. These and many other fascinating biographies fill this book and are guaranteed to inspire readers of all ages." -- Publisher.
