Summary "Valencia and Murcia, a glance at African Spain" by Albert Frederick Calvert is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work delves into the rich cultural and historical backgrounds of the Spanish regions of Valencia and Murcia, exploring their landscapes, agricultural practices, and the influence of their diverse inhabitants. It highlights the blending of different cultures, particularly during the Moorish occupation, and the development of irrigation techniques that transformed the landscape into a flourishing agricultural hub. At the start of this work, Calvert paints a vivid picture of the Kingdom of Valencia, describing its scenic beauty and agricultural wealth, which blossoms under the Mediterranean sun. He discusses the captivating life of the Valencian people, their customs, and the unique language spoken in the region, which reflects a blend of historical influences. The text also recounts the historical significance of Valencia, noting its conquests, cultural exchanges, and the lasting legacies of its Moorish past, including the establishment of a water tribunal that governs local irrigation disputes. Calvert’s opening establishes a rich context that combines natural beauty with a complex social fabric, inviting readers to explore the depth of this African-Spanish region.
