Strictly a Family Matter is about how a young mother of five children goes about spiritual uniting her family forty-three years after passing away. The message conveyed to her family from the other side is a plea for family unity. Armand, her youngest son then decides to take it upon himself to try and fulfill her last wishes. But before he can begin his quest, he is overwhelmed by a number of extraordinary dreams. Dreams that he can no longer ignore and is placed in a position where he must begin to try and interpret their meaning. There is also a series of unusual and unexplainable coincidences that includes Armand meeting a metaphysical student named Lynn Sullivan. Lynn then helps Armand to better understand the meaning of family love and bonding. Shortly after, he is then able to gather his family together for an expression of family unity, thereby fulfilling his mother's last wish. The story is being told by me, the author who has had many life experiences, this is just one of them. Much of what is written is taken from those life experiences. The rest is taken from my creative imagination just to fill in the gaps.
This book reconfigures the study of the origins of the Enlightenment in the Spanish Empire. Challenging dominant interpretations of the period, this book shows that early eighteenth-century Spanish authors turned to Enlightenment ideas to reinvent Spain’s role in the European balance of power.

The book shows, on the basis of new archival research, that the Diplomatic Enlightenment sought to turn the Spanish Empire into a space for closer political cooperation with other European and non-European states and empires.
