A Queen of Queens and the Making of Spain is a historical book written by Christopher Hare and originally published in 1906. The book tells the story of Isabella of Castile, a powerful queen who ruled over Spain during the late 15th and early 16th centuries. Isabella is known for her role in the Spanish Reconquista, the expulsion of Jews and Muslims from Spain, and for sponsoring Christopher Columbus' voyage to the New World. The book provides a detailed account of Isabella's life, from her childhood to her ascent to the throne of Castile, her marriage to Ferdinand of Aragon, and her reign as the queen of Spain. The author explores Isabella's political and religious views, her relationships with her advisors and family members, and her impact on the history of Spain.Throughout the book, Christopher Hare uses primary sources such as letters, diaries, and official documents to provide a rich and vivid portrayal of Isabella and the times in which she lived. The book also includes illustrations and maps to help readers visualize the events and locations described in the text.Overall, A Queen of Queens and the Making of Spain is a well-researched and engaging historical account of one of the most influential queens in European history. It offers readers a glimpse into the political, social, and cultural landscape of Spain during the Renaissance period and sheds light on the legacy of Isabella of Castile.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
