Andalucia by John Gill, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

A garden at the foot of Europe and a crossroads between Spain, Africa and the New World, Andalucia has been a cultural customs house on the border of the Mediterranean and Atlantic civilizations for more than ten thousand years. This book traces its origins from the earliest hominid settlersin the Granada mountains 1.8 million years ago, through successive Phoenician, Greek, Roman and Muslim cultures, and the past five hundred years of modern Castilian rule, up to and including the present day of post-modern novelists in Cordoba and Sevilla, guerrilla urban archaeologists inTorremolinos and Marbella, and underground lo-fi bands in Granada and Malaga. | Andalucia by John Gill, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
