Part of an exceptional series

This book will take you from "What is Galicia?" to You want to move there and be a part of real history. It goes from ancient history to near present and looks at Galicia as a part of a bigger world of Spain and beyond. There are good charts, diagrams, maps, and photos for a visual look at Galicia. And talk about Notes; every chapter is jam-packed with useful notes for further reading and a better understanding of the subject. If you were to pick only one book on Galicia and the world, this would be it. Resist using a highlighter, or all your pages will be yellow.
