«Los perros de Dios» is the historical essay by James Reston Jr., published by Ediciones Destino in hardback (430 pages, in Spanish).
The work examines Spain under the Catholic Monarchs in 1492, when the conquest of Granada, the expulsion of the Jews, the Inquisition, and Columbus's first voyage all coincided. It portrays its great protagonists —Isabel and Fernando, Torquemada, Boabdil, Pope Borgia— and shows how their ambitions paved the way for the discovery of America.
Published in English as «Dogs of God: Columbus, the Inquisition, and the Defeat of the Moors» (2005). This Spanish edition, translated by Marta Alcaraz, belongs to the Imago Mundi collection.
For readers interested in the history of Spain, the Inquisition, and the reign of the Catholic Monarchs, and in European expansion toward America.
James "Scotty" Barrett Reston was an American journalist whose career spanned the mid-1930s to the early 1990s. He was associated for many years with The New York Times.
