Very interesting, but not fabulously engaging to a casual reader....some of this may be that I am a scholar of neither Spain nor the Inquisition, and as such I am not the target audience. Still, well-researched and does a good job of avoiding speculative conclusions.
An odd and entertaining story that gives a window into theology and politics in Spain during its Golden Age.
