Tremlett is a fascinating socio-cultural guide, as happy to discuss Spain's World Cup win as its Moorish rule
Negotiates Spain's chaotic history with admirable clarity and style
Provides an excellent whistle-stop tour through the history that explains it all... Brisk and readable telling
Aimed at curious visitors and hispanophiles alike, this accessible trot through the country's history covers everything from Spain's connections to the ancient empires of Rome and Byzantium, to its colonisation of swathes of the Americas
España is well researched, beautifully produced and, as far as generic primers go, an exemplar of its kind
Giles Tremlett is adept at grabbing the reader's attention, opening his brief history with a revealing vignette... Tremlett's book with appeal to anyone interested in Spain's past, present, or future
