Book Reviews of Spain: A History
Book Review: I Should Have Paid Attention To The Less Than Stellar Reviews
Summary: 3 Stars
Excellent compilation of well written essays on the history of Spain. Comprehensive and succint, but boring as all get out. Having trouble with insomnia? Then give this book a try. I was hoping to get a grasp on Spanish history and this book certanly made me aware of the complexities, but it did nothing to ease the burden that the lay reader faces on the subject. I would recommend this book as a reference but not as a starting point or a casual read, despite its relative brevity. Those with a stronger background on the subject may have more of an appreciation.
