One of the classic "Companion Guides", this covers both the city of Madrid and the central region of Spain. Each volume in the series aims to provide a comprehensive travel companion in the person of the author, who knows intimately the places and people of which he or she writes.
In its architecture, its painting and its people, the Great Castilian plateau of central Spain is one of the crucibles of western civilisation. This book covers the area from Burgos in the north to Ciudad Real in the south; from Ciudad Rodrigo in the west to Cuena in the east. Madrid lies at its heart, but apart from the glories of the Prado and the royal palaces around it, Alastair Boyd finds more for the traveller in the neighbouring provinces. Segovia and Salamanca, Toledo and Avila; the very names are enough to evoke the astonishing riches which they contain and which Mr Boyd describes with scholarship, wit and love. This newly revised edition contains details of all the recentchanges in the area which can be expected to affect the traveller, and up to date practical information on where to stay and how to travel.
