About this product
Product Information
This book--the first study of its kind in English in more than fifty years--surveys the history of the medieval Crown of Aragon from its early origins in counties of the eastern Pyrenees. Reviewing the most recent research into the well-preserved archives of the region, Bisson recreates a sense of the energy, drama, and color of these creative and expansionist people between the 12th and 15th centuries.

"Provides a fine introduction in English to general readers, whether students, general readers of history, or professionals who are not specialists in the Iberian Peninsula. It is well worth reading."--Speculum "Will be welcomed by all interested in the history of medieval Spain....The book is successful both as an introductory survey and as an essay of synthesis. It is a worthy addition to the increasing number of outstanding works on medieval Spanish history being produced by American authors."--American Historical Review "[An] excellent little book."--History: Reviews of New Books "A brief, well documented history of a very complex subject....He has indeed given us a lucid account of political developments that will be of great use to studetns of medieval Spain.
