5.0 out of 5 stars Alhambra Aug 9 2010
By Marsha and Roger - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Very thorough book on the most famous palace of the Alhambra with loads of gorgeous photos. I was looking for a book on the gardens, which it does not cover, nor does it convey what a huge site the Alhambra is with a great deal of land cultivated as gardens and several other palaces to see. A complete visit in person requires six hours and is an amazing delight for history and art lovers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Teaching Aid July 10 2011
By Kelly Gondek - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
As a teacher of Spanish that has traveled to Spain and seen the beauty and wonder of the Alhambra, I was skeptical that this book would be able to capture the beauty I had seen. I was pleasantly surprised when the book came and the photos were large, colorful, and true-to-life. I am happy to share this book with my students when discussing architecture and Spanish history and see the wonder in their eyes as they see the intricate designs of the stonework... La Alhambra was a magical place, and the book captures that magic as well as one can in large, glossy pages.
