reviewed An Universal History, from the Earliest Account of Time, Volume 23 on August 18, 2015 An Universal History
This edition is abridged from three volumes to one of 294 pages hardback. Missing are Prescott's voluminous footnotes, details of battles and court life, and other matter of little general current interest. Prescott himself began an abridgment due to economic considerations but did not complete it.
This is masterly writing of history, comparable to his histories of the conquests of the Aztecs and of the Incas, missing only some of the swashbuckling adventure appearing in those two.
With her intelligence and firm dedication to her subjects, Isabella is the finest figure in this period of Spanish history, possibly the best epoch ever for the average Spaniard, despite the great stain of the Inquisition.
