Gabriel de Araceli, recovered from the wounds of 2 May in Madrid, travels to Andalusia and takes part in the Battle of Bailén (19 July 1808). There, the Spanish forces, made up largely of poorly armed peasants and Andalusian horsemen, defeat Napoleon's troops in Spain for the first time.

Suitable for readers of historical fiction and for those approaching the classics of nineteenth-century Spanish literature.
Benito María de los Dolores Pérez Galdós was a Spanish realist novelist and politician. He was a leading literary figure in 19th-century Spain, and some scholars consider him second only to Miguel de Cervantes in stature as a Spanish novelist.
