Por primera vez un volumen re©ðne la historia de Espa©ła escrita por Arturo P©♭rez-Reverte durante m©Łs de cuatro a©łos en su columna Patente de corso del XL Semanal. Un reelato ameno, personal, a ratos ir©đnico, pero siempre ©ðnico, de nuestra accidentada historia a trav©♭s de los siglos. Una obra concebida por el autor para, en palabras suyas, divertirme, releer y disfrutar; un pretexto para mirar atr©Łs desde los tiempos remotos hasta el presente, reflexionar un poco sobre ello y contarlo por escrito de una manera poco ortodoxaFor the first time, one volume gathers the history of Spain as written by Arturo P©♭rez-Reverte over the course of more than four years in his "Patente de corso" ("Carte Blanche") column for XL Semanal. An entertaining, personal, and sometimes ironic but always unique tale of Spain's turbulent history throughout the centuries. A work conceptualized by the author to, in his words, "entertain me, re-read and enjoy; a pretext for looking back through time from the very beginning until the present, reflecting a little about it, and telling it in writing in an unorthodox way."
