The Moors in Spain

De: Stanley Lane-Poole

Narrado por: Andrea Giordani

The Alhambra in Granada, the Mosque in Cordova - these are some of the magnificent physical remnants of Moorish rule in Spain. Their influence on culture, engineering, and civilization has also remained in ways often unacknowledged. Lane-Poole was the first to publish a scholarly history in English about a non-Christian civilization, making this a ground-breaking work. Written with extensive knowledge, wit, and admiration, Lane-Poole’s The Moors in Spain is not to be missed.

A product of its time

Decent corrective to centuries of earlier racist narrative, but it doesn't hold up these days.

Black Kings of Spain

Loved it! This book told a different side of African history not commonly taught in American History.

An excellent brief intro to Moors Spain

This is short book that gives highlight into the contribution and conflicts that existed during Moors time.

this book is actually riveting

This book is incredibly riveting. the scenes and stories are something out of game of thrones or Tolkien, except they are real true history.

Educational

Got to learn about group of people that the rest of the world doesn't wanna talk about at it.. politics and religionous reason I'd imagine but love this book...

The cultural significance regarding all that was not taught in school.

I knew a bit before listening, but it was great to hear the historical aspect.

kind of disappointed of the book

I was expecting more information. from the title I expected to read more about the contributions of the moors. this book was mostly about the wars.
