Modern Spain 1788-1898: The Story Of The Nations by Martin Andrew Sharp Hume is a comprehensive historical account of Spain during the 19th century. The book covers a wide range of topics, including political and social changes, economic development, cultural and artistic movements, and Spain's role in international affairs. Hume begins by examining the reign of Charles III, who initiated significant reforms that modernized the country and laid the groundwork for the liberal ideas that would emerge in the 19th century. He then delves into the tumultuous period of the Napoleonic Wars, during which Spain was occupied by French forces and experienced significant political upheaval. The book also explores the political and social changes that occurred during the reigns of Ferdinand VII and Isabella II, including the rise of liberalism and the emergence of regional nationalism. Hume examines the economic changes that took place during this time, including the growth of industry and the expansion of Spain's overseas empire. In addition to these domestic issues, Hume also covers Spain's role in international affairs, including the country's involvement in the Latin American wars of independence and the Spanish-American War. The book concludes with an analysis of the cultural and artistic movements that emerged in Spain during the 19th century, including the Romantic movement and the rise of Spanish literature and art. Overall, Modern Spain 1788-1898: The Story Of The Nations is a detailed and engaging account of Spain's transformation during the 19th century. It offers valuable insights into the country's political, social, economic, and cultural history, and is an essential read for anyone interested in Spanish history or European history more broadly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
