The book follows the life of a young woman named Elsa, who is born into a family of Rhine-Maids, a group of legendary water spirits that are said to inhabit the Rhine River.Elsa's family is unique in that they have rejected the traditional beliefs and customs of the Rhine-Maids and have instead embraced democratic ideals. Elsa is raised to be independent and self-sufficient, and she becomes a strong advocate for women's rights and social justice.As Elsa grows older, she becomes involved in the political movements of her time, including the struggle for German unification and the fight against the oppressive ruling class.
