Title: Another professor publishes their lectures
Review: As a enthusiast and traveler of Spain for over 20 years, I looked forward to some unique and revealing insight in this publication. Instead what I received was more a kin to the compilation of the lectures I might get by attending Dr. Menocal's classes.The information is relatively well known and the presentation and chronology is caotic. Dr. Menocal recounts the history and personalities of the Iberian pennisula but to no purpose other than to say that it shows that different cultures tolerated each other, which is historically obvious.I rated it 2 stars only because it would serve as a good text book for a novice course on Spanish History.
