This book presents a portrait of the landscapes, history, people and problems of Spain. The book develops such themes as army and church resistance to the new liberalism in Spain today, and the strange case of the Basques. Since General Franco's death Spain has achieved the miracle of a peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy. According to the author, Spaniards are recovering a splendid tradition of tolerance lost in 1492, when Granada, Spain's last Moorish enclave, fell to the Christians. Now there is an obsession with making up for lost time, a determination to figure prominently on the map of the world.
