A History of Spain

Originally published in 1958, this was the first scholarly anglophone history of Spain. It covers the whole story from Spanish pre-history onwards and includes a full treatment of the various states until their fusion as a modern nation, and on through the Civil War until the late 20th Century. The book explains the origins and development of Spanish society and the special commitments which determined Spanish policies.

Harold Livermore (1914-2010) was a major historian of Iberia.
