Books boeken charles esdaile penguin hardcover: At the end of the 18th century Spain remained one of the worlds most powerful empires. Portugal too was prosperous at the time.

By 1808 everything had changed. Portugal was under occupation and ravaged by famine disease economic problems and political instability.

Spain had imploded and worse was to come. For the next six years the peninsula was the helpless victim of others suffering perhaps over a million deaths while troops from all over Europe tore it to pieces.

Charles Esdailes brilliant new history of the conflict makes plain the scope of the tragedy and its far-reaching effects especially the poisonous legacy that produced the Spanish civil war of 1936-9. .
