| Summary | "Valladolid, Oviedo, Segovia, Zamora, Avila & Zaragoza" by Albert Frederick Calvert is a historical and descriptive account written in the early 20th century. The book covers six lesser-known cities in Spain, highlighting their architectural and cultural significance, as well as their historical importance. Calvert aims to shed light on these cities for English travelers, who may overlook their rich heritage in favor of more famous destinations. The opening of the book sets the stage by emphasizing the historical backdrop and contemporary relevance of Valladolid, the first city discussed. Calvert notes the city's once prominent role as a political capital and its connections to notable figures such as Cervantes and Columbus. He describes Valladolid as bustling and ingrained with history, with various anecdotes illustrating its turbulent past, including turbulent political events and notable historic figures. The author draws the reader’s attention to the city’s memories, architecture, and significance, priming the exploration of each city that follows. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
