A key theme from Columbus's first voyage in 1492 was Spain's trans-oceanic empire which was central to the country's global impact. And the story continues with a look at contemporary Spain, not least Catalonia, and its future. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBlack succeeds in covering not only political and military history, but also environmental and cultural factors. He looks, too, at what makes Spain's regions distinct, and how the history of the Iberian peninsula, could, at various points, have taken some very different turns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeremy Black\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1472141687\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781472141682\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Robinson Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/03\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 4.90w x 0.80d","brand":"Jeremy Black","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43994072678655,"sku":"9781472141682","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7cddf6df-7747-4d69-984d-92468a96ca11.jpg?v=1683327971","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-brief-history-of-spain-jeremy-black-9781472141682","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
