Summary

This lively new textbook is a comprehensive treatment of Spanish history, capturing nearly two centuries of Spain in one volume. It provides a major reevaluation of modern Spain and draws from the work of leading historians in North America, Britain, and Spain. It also includes extensive material from archives that have only become available since the end of the Franco regime in the 1970s.
