{"product_id":"the-alhambra-new-edition-irving-washington-9781594626371","title":"The Alhambra (New Edition)","description":"Rough draughts of some of the following tales and essays were actually written during a residence in the Alhambra; others were subsequently added, founded on notes and observations made there. Care was taken to maintain local coloring and verisimilitude; so that the whole might present a faithful and living picture of that microcosm, that singular little world into which I had been fortuitously thrown; and about which the external world had a very imperfect idea. It was my endeavor scrupulously to depict its half Spanish, half Oriental character; its mixture of the heroic, the poetic, and the grotesque; to revive the traces of grace and beauty fast fading from its walls; to record the regal and chivalrous traditions concerning those who once trod its courts; and the whimsical and superstitious legends of the motley race now burrowing among its ruins.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Irving Washington, Washington Irving\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1594626375\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781594626371\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Book Jungle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/20\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 372\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 7.50w x 0.77d","brand":"Irving Washington","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44567173202175,"sku":"9781594626371","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f54fe5ef-7e36-492e-a5db-e01cad02b6ae.jpg?v=1701376382","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-alhambra-new-edition-irving-washington-9781594626371","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
