Granada's Alhambra and Cadiz Seen by Carlisle Traveler
Dr. W. A. Lisman of Carlisle writes from Cadiz and Granada about Spain in 1906. He recalls Cadiz’s ancient walls and Moorish history, Seville’s cathedral and Alcazar, the Alhambra’s Moorish palaces, and the stark contrast between wealth and poverty along Spanish rail routes and towns as he travels toward Gibraltar.
