The Bible in Spain is a travelogue written by George Borrow. It was first published in 1843 and is considered a classic of travel literature. The book recounts Borrow's travels through Spain in the early 19th century, during which he distributed copies of the Bible to the local population. Borrow's journey takes him through the rugged and often inhospitable terrain of Spain, where he encounters a wide variety of people, from bandits and gypsies to government officials and religious leaders. Along the way, he describes the customs, traditions, and beliefs of the Spanish people, as well as their attitudes towards religion and politics.The Bible in Spain is notable for its vivid descriptions of the Spanish landscape and its people, as well as for its insights into the social and political climate of the time. Borrow's account is both informative and entertaining, and provides a unique perspective on a country that was still largely unknown to the rest of Europe at the time of his travels.My friend told me that these heights were favourite stations of robbers. Some two years since, a band of six mounted banditti remained there three days, and plundered whomsoever approached from either quarter: their horses, saddled and bridled, stood picqueted at the foot of the trees, and two scouts, one for each eminence, continually sat in the topmost branches and gave notice of the approach of travellers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
