About this book
Creators: George Borrow (1803-1881), Ulick Ralph Burke (1845-1895) [Editor], and Herbert W. Greene (1857-1933) [Editor] "The Bible in Spain, Vol. 2 [of 2]" by George Borrow is a travel book published in 1843. Borrow recounts his adventures as a Bible salesman traveling through Spain during the Carlist Civil War from 1835 to 1838. Facing opposition from the Catholic Church and authorities, he negotiates with prime ministers, distributes Spanish translations of the New Testament, opens an illegal bookshop, and encounters a vivid array of Spaniards—from beggars to Gypsies to crypto-Jews. His mission leads to imprisonment, illness, and eventual expulsion from Spain. (This is an automatically generated summary.) Reading Level: Reading ease score: 66.9 (8th & 9th grade).
