Moors in Spain e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. It is not my intention to write the history of the Moors in minute detail, but merely to retrace their principal revolutions, and attempt a faith ful sketch of their national character and man ners. The Spanish historians, whom I have carefully consulted in aid of this design, have been of but little assistance to me in my efforts. Careful to give a very prominent place in their extremely complicated narratives to the various sovereigns of Asturia, Navarre, Aragon, and Castile, they advert to the Moors only when their wars with the Christians inseparably mingle the' interests of the two nations; but they never allude to the government, customs, or laws of the enemies of their faith.
