«Historia de España» is the historical essay by Pierre Vilar, published by Booket in paperback (192 pages, in Spanish).
A synthesis of the Spanish past, from its origins to 1996, integrating political, economic and cultural history. Vilar challenges the cliché of «España es diferente», vindicates the conquest of America, the Enlightenment and early modernisation, and defends Spain's belonging to the family of European nations.
First title in the Biblioteca de Bolsillo collection. The book, banned by Francoist censorship, was conceived in a prisoner-of-war camp during the Second World War and later updated.
For history students and readers wanting an overview of the Spanish past in a pocket format.

He is considered one of the most authoritative 20th-century historians for the history of Spain, for both the Ancien Régime and modern history.
