Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0710095422, Paperback)

Now in its seventh edition, this lively, reliable handbook to Spain shows no signs of slowing down. As gregariously written and all-encompassing as ever, the Rough Guide features lively accounts of Madrid's non-stop nightlife and Barcelona's museums and architecture, as Ellingham and Fisher lead you to the best flamenco bars, Moorish monuments, bullfights and fiestas across the country. The detailed listings include tapas bars, modest pensiones and luxury paradors. The much-praised cultural coverage illuminates the Crusades, the Franco years and the arts through the ages, from Velazquez to Amoldovar and the music scene today. Includes 97 maps and plans.
