  • Spanish Travels, Volume 1

    I've always been a fan of nineteenth-century travel narratives in English. They make comparisons that reveal more about England or the US than they do about the country visited. They don't avoid showing their awe or their disgust. They're resolutely opinionated and unabashedly judgmental. In other words, their perspective makes the book. In spite of all that, someone reading these narratives today ... Read more

  • The Alhambra

    It is not possible to forget Washington Irving in the Alhambra. With a single volume, the simple, gentle, kindly American man of letters became no less a figure in the Moor's Red Palace than Boabdil and Lindaraxa of whom he wrote. And yet, never perhaps did a book make so unconscious a bid for popularity. Irving visited Granada in 1828. He returned the following year, when the Governor's ... Read more
