Summary "The History of the Reign of Ferdinand and Isabella the Catholic — Volume 2" by William H. Prescott is a historical account likely written in the mid-19th century. The book delves into the dynamic political, social, and religious changes during the reign of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain, covering significant events such as the Inquisition, military campaigns, and cultural developments in their kingdoms. The opening of this volume outlines critical internal matters within the kingdom, particularly the enforcement of laws and the implementation of the Inquisition, which generated substantial unrest among the populace. It describes Isabella’s efforts to maintain order amid resistance from the nobility and church officials, as well as the struggles of the Catalan serfs against feudal oppression. In addition, early military strategies during the War of Granada are introduced, signifying the commencement of a pivotal phase in Spain's historical narrative. The stage is set for a deep examination of the socio-political landscape that characterized the reign of these influential monarchs. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
