Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 308 Pages. Stiff covers with flaps. Covers show light wear to edges. Interior text pages are flawless. Some books age with the passing of time while others maintain their youth fresh and untarnished. This is the case with the Tales of the Alhambra by Washington Irving. A North American diplomat, historian and traveller, he lived for some time in the very Alhambra itself. His book, published for the first time in 1832, was immediately translated into many languages and attracted to Granada pilgrims from every latitude. In it we find a highly romantic outlook, all colour and atmosphere, together with acutely-observed, first-hand impressions full of subtlety, humour and feeling. Here on the one hand we become acquainted with the local legends and traditions which maintain today the enchantment of yesterday; on the other hand, we have superb realistic sketches of the strange world of that 19th century Alhambra, so alive, so real: ordinary men and women, invalid soldiers, beggars. These may even be the most evocative pages in the book. Interspersed throughout are illustrations in the form of contemporary engravings which reveal all the romantic charm of the environs and the inhabitants of the Alhambra of that time. This was the period when great artists such as Roberts, Lewis, and Dore discovered and re-created its atmosphere. To illustrate Irving's book with these engravings not only embellishes it but in a sense completes it.

Washington Irving (1783-1859) was an American author, diplomat, and historian best known for The Sketch Book (which includes 'Rip Van Winkle' and 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow') and for his historical writings on Spain. During his tenure as U.S. Minister to Spain, Irving lived in the Alhambra, drawing inspiration from its Moorish architecture and legends to create Tales of the Alhambra - a romantic, atmospheric work that helped ignite 19th-century fascination with Andalusia and the Islamic heritage of Spain.
