Washington Irving’s lifelong interest in Spain—sparked by reading Don Quixote as a child—resulted in traveling and living in the country for a period of time. Irving wrote several books about Spain and the Moors, including this account of Spain’s conflict with the Moors—an engaging read for students of European history.
