THE STORY OF THE MOORS IN SPAIN

The decline and fall of the Moorish Empire was a great setback to modern civilization. Had this great African culture been able to survive, the world would have been five hundred years more advanced than it is today. The Story of the Moors in Spain is a chronicle of splendor and tragedy, and no one has told the story better than Stanley Lane Poole. All serious students of history should read this book. It is of special value to students of African history, who should be glad that this historical classic is now back in print.
