| Summary: | "Not an everyday travel book, but an intimate study of the picturesque poetic charm of the peninsula and the graciousness of Spanish manners. Spain like no other country is a land of contrasts, oriental and Christian civilization blend into a kaleidoscopic pattern. In this unusual book the backwardness of the villages and the refined culture of the cities with their priceless masterpieces of art are pictured with sincere feeling as one whole revealing the intimate Spanish soul." --Dust jacket. |
