Ela Sabia que Perderia o Trono e Assinou Mesmo Assim: Princesa Isabel e a Lei Áurea

Princess Isabel knew she was going to lose the throne when she signed the Golden Law on May 13, 1888. The Baron of Cotegipe told her this to her face. And she signed it anyway. A story of Imperial Brazil that is only half told. The gold pen studded with diamonds, the ten thousand in Largo do Paço, the Quilombo of Leblon that no one hid, and the conservative cabinet that passed the abolition in five days. May 13, 1888, a Sunday. Seven hundred thousand people freed. A year and a half later, the Empire ended.
