Spain

"Spain" by Frederick A. Ober is an expansive historical narrative covering three thousand years of Spain's story, starting from its earliest days and continuing up to the beginning of the 20th century. The book journeys through the country’s evolution, touching on early inhabitants, the arrival and impact of Christianity, the reigns of kings and queens, and the conflicts and social changes that molded Spain. Ober shares his own interest in bringing this sweeping story to life, acknowledging the challenge of fitting so much history into one book while hoping to spark curiosity and encourage future readers to go and explore key figures and moments in Spain’s past.
