Familiar Spanish Travels is a travelogue written by William Dean Howells, an American author, and literary critic. The book is a collection of essays that describe his travels through Spain, exploring the country's history, culture, and people. Howells takes the reader on a journey through the cities of Madrid, Toledo, Seville, and Granada, among others, and shares his observations on the architecture, art, and cuisine of each place. He also delves into the social and political issues of Spain, including the country's struggle for independence and the impact of the Catholic Church on Spanish society. Throughout the book, Howells provides a vivid and detailed account of his experiences and encounters with the Spanish people, making the reader feel as if they are right there with him. Familiar Spanish Travels is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in Spain, its culture, and its history.The haggard mountain ranges were of stone that seemed blanched with geologic superannuation, and at one place we ran by a wall of hoary rock that drew its line a mile long against the sky, and then broke and fell, and then staggered up again in a succession of titanic bulks. But stupendous as these mountain masses were, they were not so wonderful as those wheat-lands which in harvest-time must wash their shores like a sea of gold. Where these now rose and sank with the long ground-swell of the plains in our own West, a thin gray stubble covered them from the feeble culture which leaves Spain, for all their extent in both the Castiles, in Estremadura, in Andalusia, still without bread enough to feed herself, and obliges her to import alien wheat.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
