Old Spain and New Spain is a historical and cultural exploration of Spain, written by American author and diplomat Henry Martyn Field. Published in 1888, the book offers a comprehensive look at Spain's past and present, examining its history, politics, religion, and social customs. Field begins by tracing the country's ancient roots, from the Roman conquest to the rise of the Moors and the Reconquista. He then delves into Spain's Golden Age, exploring the art, literature, and intellectual achievements of the 16th and 17th centuries. The book also covers Spain's decline in the 18th and 19th centuries, including its loss of colonial power and struggles with political instability. Throughout the text, Field compares and contrasts the old Spain of the past with the new Spain of his time, examining how the country had changed and evolved over the centuries. The book is an important historical document, offering a unique perspective on Spain's rich cultural heritage and its place in the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
