Excerpt from The Highlands of Cantabria or Three Days From EnglandIt was in 718, in the cul de sac of Covadonga, that the Gothic chief, Pelayo, with his noble band of about 300, struck terror into the Moorish invaders, and dealt the first of those series of blows to Saracenic interference with Spain and her people, which cu] minated seven hundred years later in the conquest of their last stronghold in the Peninsula, Granada. At Covadonga it was that Pelayo donned his iron crown as King of the Asturias, Leon, and Castile, its material being the points of Moorish spears, taken from chiefs that he had slain with his own hand and here, too, the Spanish people are to-day erecting a noble cathedral in immediate proximity to the cave where rest the ashes of the founder of their nation. Almost every mountain and valley of the Cantabrian range has some tradition of that fierce and unequal struggle of the mountaineers for liberty, and they all appeal strongly to British sympathies.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

A chance encounter while shopping in a northern Spanish fishing port draws delectable, half-French, half-Polish Tamara von Rosenberg into friendship with Martin Haynes, a freelance writer and translator living in a nearby village. Their relationship, kindled through mutual intellectual interests, soon blossoms into caring, passionate affection. Tamara's idyllic holiday in Cantabria is brought to a premature and unhappy end when news reaches her that her widower father is dying following an inexplicable road accident on a remote Polish country lane. Tamara and Martin try in vain to solve the mystery of Ruben's death. Meanwhile, Tamara's perseverance with her late father's ambition to transform a derelict 19th century mansion into a nursing home is met with spiteful opposition. Certain individuals will resort to radical means to wrest the property from her hands. Poland plunges into a bleak and bitter winter of political turmoil and economic chaos amid growing opposition to the government's positive stance of future European Union membership. Nationalistic sympathies run high, and there is a renaissance of historic feuds. Tamara and Martin soon discover that staying alive in remote Rybkowo is a formidable challenge.
