History of Cordoba
ANTONIO JAÉN MORENTE's HISTORY OF CORDOBA Translated into English First published in 1921 by the highly distinguished Spanish Republican professor as a textbook for students. This translation is of the fourth edition of the HISTORY OF CORDOBA, the last one the author corrected and annotated before his death in 1964. It is also the first of his works to be translated. Antonio Jaén's intense love of Cordoba is evident on every page. A born teacher, he strove to transmit this passion to everyone he encountered, whether as a teacher, author, diplomat or politician, at home or during his extensive travels to the Americas and to the Far East. Fellow historians, past and present, stress the importance of this work, his scholarship and the manner in which the author speaks directly to the reader as he delves into the history of Cordoba, from pre-history to the beginning of the 20th century.

Cordoba
A tribute to Antonio Jaén Morente, in recognition of his lifetime researching and studying Cordoba, his granddaughters Angela, Cristina and Magdalena Gorrell Jaén undertook to translate, annotate and publish his history of Cordoba with a view to sharing his remarkable, detailed work with everyone, especially visitors to Cordoba and interested readers who are more comfortable with the English language. Held to be one of the great Spanish intellectuals - university professor, author and diplomat, Member of Parliament and eminent Republican, Antonio Jaén Morente speaks directly to the reader as a professor before his students. First published in 1921, corrected and updated by the author several times prior to his death in 1964, the posthumous 1971 Spanish edition of this book on which his granddaughters based their translation, has been reprinted several times since then and continues to lead sales of histories of Cordoba nationwide.
