(Frederick Albion) Beverly, Fred Spain History for young readers Produced by Giovanni Fini, Juliet Sutherland and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Spain" by Frederick A. Ober is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book offers an extensive overview of Spain's history, spanning from its ancient Iberian roots to the conflicts and socio-political developments leading up to the early 20th century. It explores a variety of topics, including invasions by various cultures, the impact of Christianity, interceding monarchies, and the country’s transformation over centuries. The opening of the book presents a preface in which Ober reflects on his motivations for undertaking this considerable work on Spain’s history. He expresses the challenge of condensing three thousand years of events into a single volume while anticipating readers' questions about his audacity in attempting such an undertaking. Ober's journey to understand Spain springs from a personal curiosity about its history, particularly regarding its connections to notable figures who played significant roles in both Spanish and world history. He aims to convey both the pleasure and lessons derived from his studies, acknowledging the difficulties in representing historical facts attractively while guiding young readers towards more detailed literature on specific episodes in Spanish history.
