Excerpt from A Queen of Queens, and the Making of Spain The very name is an Open Sesame to the world Of romance, Of legend and Of story and as we gaze upon it, our minds are ﬂooded with dim enthralling memories of a long-vanished past. The magic Spell is upon us. Once more we are in the unforgotten land Of Spanish chivalry and Moorish enchantment, where every tale Of prince and paladin, Of feast and foray; every vision Of stately rock-girt castle, Of fairy palace, Of dome and minaret - set in a fair garden land Of exquisite beauty passing a poet's dream - all combine to form the emblazoned tapestry on which stands forth the gracious figure Of our peer less lady Isabel the Queen.
