The Duke of Alba

The Duke of Alba

by HKamen (Author)

Synopsis

Ferdinand Alvarez de Toledo, the third duke of Alba, is remembered as a fanatical monster who laid waste much of the Netherlands rather than surrender it to Protestant heretics. Kamen attempts a re-evaluation of the duke, assessing this complex figure in the context of his times and personal faith.
