Citizen Emperor by Roderick Barman. It's a comprehensive biography on Brazil's last ruler, Pedro II, who was crowned emperor at the age of 14 when his father abdicated. He improved Brazil's standing impressively by ending slavery and modernizing the country, as well as being able to overcome a health issues wrought by his Habsburg heritage. A good read.
