A history made of many stories. What exactly is the history of Spain?
The history of Spain can be explained through epics, through the great moments that marked a turning point: it could be Columbus’s arrival in the Americas or the voice of La Pasionaria, the empire where the sun never set, or the disaster of the Spanish Armada.
But it can also be so much more than we imagine. It could be the support networks of the Fisherwomen’s Guild of Bermeo, the struggle of the heroines of Numancia, or the tenacity of the ‘La Canadiense’ strike.
It can be a journey filled with great deeds and small achievements, of lights and shadows, of solidarity, conflict, community, and resistance—and of realities that have rarely been explained. Discover the history of Spain they never dared to tell you.
A brilliant crossover comic that demystifies a nation’s identity.
Perfect for young readers and history buffs looking for a smart, multi-layered journey filled with solidarity, conflict, and humor.
