Story0
The history of Spain unfolds like a poignant tapestry, revealing a time when Tarik the Moor brought the once-mighty land of the Visigoths under the sway of Islam. For nearly eight centuries, Spain flourished under its Muslim rulers, emerging as a beacon of civilization and enlightenment in Europe. Her fertile regions, enhanced by the ingenuity and labor of her conquerors, yielded bountiful harvests. Countless cities blossomed in the lush valleys of the Guadalquivir and Guadiana, their names echoing the remarkable splendor of a bygone era. - Summary by Stanley Lane-Poole

Story0
We are Tania and Gaetano, two expats who moved our families to Spain for new adventures. We both moved here from the US, Tania (originally from the UK) in 2020, with her husband and daughter from Northern Virginia, and Gaetano in 2023 with his two daughters from Los Angeles. We all met in Valencia and got along incredibly well, but while we cracked each other up discussing our fun times adjusting to Spain, there were quite a few eye-rolls from our girls (tweens and teenagers anyone!). In an effort to give our daughters a little break we thought what the heck, let’s share our experiences with...

Story0
Throughout the Second World War, Lisbon was at the very center of the world’s attention and was the only European city in which both the Allies and the Axis powers openly operated. Portugal was frantically trying to hold on to its self-proclaimed wartime neutrality but in reality was increasingly caught in the middle of the economic, and naval, wars between the Allies and the Nazis. The story is not, however, a conventional tale of World War II in that barely a shot was fired or a bomb dropped. Instead, it is a gripping tale of intrigue, betrayal, opportunism, and double-dealing....

Dive into the tumultuous era of the Rif War, a brutal conflict between 1921 and 1926 that marked a dark chapter in colonial history. This five-year struggle was not only a desperate attempt by Spain to assert control over a territory in North Africa granted to them by France, but it was also a catastrophic venture that left a deep scar on all parties involved—the Spanish, the French, and the Rifian people. With over forty thousand Spanish casualties and a nation left humiliated, the war set the stage for the fall of Alfonso XIII, civil unrest, and the rise of Franco. Meanwhile, the French ...

Fueled by a mining concession dispute, the war turned into a catastrophic ordeal for all parties involved—the Spanish, the French, and the Rifian people.

En unos tiempos en que ha vuelto a hacer acto de presencia una profunda crispación política, y a solo una década de que España conmemore el inicio del mayor drama de nuestra historia contemporánea, la pregunta sobre qué queremos hacer con el recuerdo de la Guerra Civil no sólo es pertinente sino especialmente relevante. Este ensayo ha sido concebido con un triple objetivo. Primero, fomentar un debate social respecto no sólo a un pasado cada vez más remoto, sino a un futuro en el que definitivamente la negra sombra de la Guerra Civil pueda desaparecer.

Por este libro pasan aproximadamente unos trescientos personajes. Sin duda son muchísimos más los que han pasado por el histórico Café Gijón del Paseo Recoletos. Pero no todos tienen méritos suficientes para aparecer en este relato memorial del autor que es, probablemente, arbitrario y a merced de los designios no siempre objetivos ni neutrales del mismo. Para pertenecer a la tribu del Gijón hay que haber sido un bohemio cuando todavía existía la bohemia, tener detrás a la policía o, por lo menos, a la dueña de la pensión en que habitabas y que no veía la forma de cobrar.

¿España está condenada o simplemente mal contada? Durante décadas nos han repetido que España no tiene remedio. Que somos diferentes, incorregibles, un caso perdido. Pero, ¿y si esa resignación no fuera más que el resultado de una hábil estrategia de ingeniería cultural? ¿Y si el problema no estuviera en los españoles, sino en la forma en que nos han enseñado a vernos, en cómo nos narramos a nosotros mismos como país?

Un recorrido apasionante y documentado por la huella vasca en el descubrimiento, la conquista y la civilización de América: desde las motivaciones, cartas y disputas intelectuales en torno a Colón hasta la participación crucial de marinos, pilotos y constructores navales de Vizcaya, Guipúzcoa y Álava en las expediciones clave del siglo XV y XVI. Con fuentes de primera mano y crónicas coetáneas, la obra ilumina episodios fundacionales (la travesía de 1492, la colonia Navidad, el papel de Juan de la Cosa y los Pinzón, las rutas del Atlántico Norte, la cartografía, los pleitos colombinos).

Between 1539 and 1542, the Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto led a small army on an expedition of almost four thousand miles across Southeastern America. De Soto's path had been one of history's most intriguing mysteries until the publication of Knights of Spain, Warriors of the Sun. Using a new route reconstruction, anthropologist Charles Hudson maps the story of the de Soto expedition, tying the route to a number of specific archaeological sites.

Living in Spain: real life, real stories, and real misadventures. After swapping a grand Victorian house in leafy Essex for a tiny flat in a wild Andalusian village, we've spent the last ten years navigating the joys, shocks and absurdities of life in Spain. I'm a former London radio producer (not a very good one). I once sacked Richard Hammond for not knowing enough about cars, was spectacularly rude to J.K. Rowling and threw away her early children's book, and told the man behind Amazon UK that nobody would ever buy books online. Then I ran away to Spain with my other half and our big ginger...
