This historical account examines the political and economic instability in Spain during the early nineteenth century. Written by the Count of Toreno, the text focuses on the Peninsular War and the consequences of monetary reforms. For a learner of Spanish, this work presents a significant challenge. The prose is formal and academic, reflecting the style of the nineteenth century. You will encounter complex sentence structures and specialized vocabulary related to history and finance, which requires a patient and analytical approach to reading.

Questions about this book
What level of Spanish do I need for this book?
The estimate is C1, based on how common the words are and how long the sentences run. It is an approximation, not a test result. With a translation under every sentence you can start one level earlier than you would with a paper copy.
Is this book really free?
Yes. The text is in the public domain and comes from Project Gutenberg, so it costs nothing. In Lingo7 you open the book and read the first page for free; a subscription unlocks the whole library, the audio and the word practice.
How does reading with a translation work?
Lingo7 shows the original sentence and, right under it, the same sentence in your language. Tap a word to see what it means, hear it, and save it for practice. The translation is made while you read, so it works for any book and for 49 languages.
How long does it take to read?
About 13 h at a native pace, spread over 99 chapters. In a foreign language plan for more: half an hour a day finishes a book of this size in a few weeks.
