Mentiras de la Historia de España

Was any of the Magi Spanish? Were the English the inventors of Parliament? Was Juana, the daughter of the Catholic Monarchs, crazy? Why is Cervantes called the Manco de Lepanto if he had arms? Had Charles II been bewitched?. Was the loss of Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines in 1898 really a disaster? Is it true that the Italians who fought in the battle of Guadalajara in 1937 thought they were coming to Spain to make a movie? Was there an Iberian gasoline in the dictatorship? Did Franco invent Social Security? Why did the Caudillo persecute the communists and freemasons, but he gave free rein to ufology? In this magnificent book, the historians María Lara Martínez and Laura Lara Martínez dissect some essential episodes of our country that have been distorted, misinterpreted or hidden, and take the opportunity to dismantle clichés and legends. An entertaining and educational essay to learn more about the greatest Empire ever known and the one that cared the most about human rights.
