Rezensionen
Spain, 1808-1975 (Oxford History of Modern Europe) von Raymond Carr
It is tough to read this book due to the author's dry writing style. It is recommended that one has prior knowledge of the covered era in this book as the author frequently dumps huge amounts of information on the reader in one page. Someone who doesn't have any background on spanish history will certainly be overwhelmed by this book. Nevertheless, i would still give it four stars due to the very informative nature of this book. One can really learn a lot if one has the patience to dive through this book.… (mehr)
