The Story of Don John of Austria

“In one of the addresses delivered at the time of Padre Coloma's admission to the Real Academia Espa?ola there is a reference to Jeromín, as this Story of Don John of Austria is called in Spanish, which says that it awakes great interest in the reader by inaugurating a new type of book, half novel and half history. This seems too true a description of it not to be quoted here.”
