History of the Reign of Ferdinand and Isabella, the Catholic of Spain, Vol. 1 of 3 (Classic Reprint)

English writers have done more for the illustration of Spanish history, than for that of any other except their own. To say nothing of the recent general compendium, executed for the Cabmet Cyclopaedia, a work of singular acuteness and information, we have particular narratives of the several reigns, in an unbroken series, from the emperor Charles the Fifth (the First of Spain) to Charles the Third, at the close of the last century, by authors whose names are a sufficient guaranty for the excellence of their productions. It is singular, that, with this attention to the modem history of the Peninsula, there should be no particular account of the period, which may be considered as the proper basis of it, the reign ofF erdinand and I sabella.
