1950, London, Hollis & Carter, ppviii + 251, orange cloth in dustwrapper. "This short work is perhaps the crowning achievement of Ramon Menendez Pidal, the greatest living historian of Spanish culture. It is a calm, dispassionate analysis of Spain's national characteristics written by a scientist and a humanist in a mood of detached enquiry. He takes in the whole panorama of Spanish history and shows how modern tendencies are due to causes that lie embedded in the original character". Professor Walter Starkie, traveller, linguist, and literary critic, was head of the British Institute in Madrid for many years. Dustwrapper slightly rubbed, otherwise very good.
