TALES OF THE ALHAMBRA

Washington Irving was a passionate traveller who had a unique ability to capture the soul of the places he visited, with tremendous sensitivity. Fascinated by the magic of Andalusia, in Tales of the Alhambra he reinvents popular legends from the period when the Mo ors dominated Spain: a world of beautiful Moorish princesses, ambitious kings, wonderful gardens and hidden treasures. These enchant ing tales awaken the imagination and take us back to times gone by.
