Spain is an immemorial land like no other, one that James A.
Michener, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author and celebrated citizen
of the world, came to love as his own. "Iberia "is Michener's
enduring nonfiction tribute to his cherished second home. In the
fresh and vivid prose that is his trademark, he not only reveals
the celebrated history of bullfighters and warrior kings, painters
and processions, cathedrals and olive orchards, he also shares the
intimate, often hidden country he came to know, where the
congeniality of living souls is thrust against the dark weight of
history. Wild, contradictory, passionately beautiful, this is Spain
as experienced by a master writer.
