Summary This three-volume edition of the Chronicle of King Pedro is a compelling and richly informative account of the turbulent reign of the notorious but enigmatic fourteenth-century Castilian monarch known as Pedro el Cruel. The clear and lively translation is accompanied by a Spanish text taken from Germán Orduna's groundbreaking edition and by a detailed introduction and extensive notes.
