Summary
Widely hailed as a revelation of a 'lost' golden age, this history brings to vivid life the rich and thriving culture of medieval Spain where, for more than seven centuries, Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived together in an atmosphere of tolerance, and literature, science, and the arts flourished.

One of my top three audiobooks about spanish history which is Iberian, Al-andalusian, Sepharadic, Roman, etc etc and this book is such a charming deep-dive on the specific Convivienca of religions, cultures and societies.
