Carved by Gianlorenzo Bernini in 1636 - 37 for his own pleasure, the portrait of Costanza is one of his most captivating works, but until now little has been known about its subject. For centuries Costanza was identified only as Bernini's mistress, who later incited his rage by betraying him for his brother. Author Sarah McPhee corrects and expands this story in her remarkable biography of a sculpture and its subject.

History is important to the understanding of life; it is hoped the reader will enjoy this study of a long-time family, their love for country, and accepting failure and defeat with victory. John-Jehu was said to be a successful businessman, early 1800s, and, since he was fluent in the Cherokee language, he had been in the employ of the Judge Advocate for the Cherokee before 1830. This really lines up with all we have learned of his life, and we hail him as a fine American, a patriot, with all the values that made this a great nation, that is, a voice for the weak, a love of justice, and human progress.
