The History Of Spain by Harrison E. Salisbury
A concise, narrative survey of Spain’s development from ancient Iberian and Roman roots through the Visigothic and Muslim periods, the Reconquista and the rise of a vast overseas empire, and the subsequent decline, nineteenth-century transformations and twentieth-century convulsions. The book emphasizes the interplay of religion, regional identities, imperial ambition and social change—culminating in the Spanish Civil War, the Franco dictatorship and the nation’s eventual path toward modernization.
