Description
The Lady From Toledo is a novel written by Fray Angelico Chavez. The story is set in the 16th century and follows the life of a young Spanish woman named Isabel de Caravantes. Isabel is forced to flee her home in Toledo after her family is accused of heresy by the Inquisition. She seeks refuge in the New World, where she meets and falls in love with a young Franciscan friar named Fray Alonso de Benavides.As Isabel and Fray Alonso navigate their feelings for each other, they also face numerous challenges and obstacles. They must contend with the harsh realities of life in the New World, including disease, famine, and violence. They also find themselves caught up in the political machinations of the Spanish colonial authorities, who are determined to maintain their power and control over the indigenous peoples.Throughout the novel, Chavez explores themes of love, faith, and redemption. He also provides a vivid and detailed portrait of life in colonial New Mexico, depicting the landscape, customs, and traditions of the indigenous peoples with sensitivity and respect.The Lady From Toledo is a compelling and thought-provoking work of historical fiction that will appeal to readers who enjoy stories of adventure, romance, and cultural exchange. Chavez's masterful storytelling and richly drawn characters make this a book that is not to be missed.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
