Isabella of Spain was a great girl, a great Queen. Crown of Aloes is shown as a personal chronicle. In the framework of known reality and detail drawn from hitherto unexploited contemporary Spanish sources, a novelist's thoughts and understanding have provided motives, thoughts, and private conversations, helping to build-up the fascinating identity Isabella will need to have been.

It was still left to others to understand how stunning her successes have been.
