First National Episode by Benito Pérez Galdós: Gabriel de Araceli, a young lad, arrives by chance at the naval battle of Trafalgar. Through his almost childlike gaze, the novel portrays the combat and the world of brave soldiers, veteran sailors and families of Cádiz, within the frieze of 19th-century Spain that the National Episodes traverse.
It belongs to the First Series of the National Episodes, where it holds number 1. The novel was originally published in 1873; this Spanish edition appeared in 2004.
For readers of historical fiction and classic Spanish literature, as an entry point to the National Episodes.
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.
