Isabella Greenway was at home on the western range and in New York salons, an energetic entrepreneur who managed a ranch, an airline and a resort, a politician who became a key player in the New Deal. A lifelong friend of Eleanor Roosevelt, Isabella blazed a trail for remarkable women in Arizona politics, from Sandra Day O'Connor to Governor Janet Napolitano.

"It's a true story that reads like a novel."
-- Tucson Citizen

"It has everything: a complex, compelling, and genuinely eloquent central figure; not one but two extraordinary love stories; friendships with the great and near-great; and vivid glimpses of politics both local and national."
-- Geoffrey C. Ward, author, with ken Burns, of The Civil War and Baseball
