About This Item
This is a very handsome copy of The Spanish Inquisition: A Historical Revision, by the British historian Henry Kamen, who is an expert on the subject. In it, he dispels many of the myths and misconceptions about what happened during that dark time; he argues that there was less persecution and violence than we think.
This book was first published in 1965. Kamen updated it in 1997, then abridged it. The Folio Society printed that abridged version in 1997 and it went to three printings. This is a copy of that third printing.
It is in a plain black slipcase, which has a scuff on one corner. As you would expect from the Folio Society, the paper and design are beautiful; it contains a few pages of photos but is mostly unadorned.
No one has read this book. It is in mint condition.
