«La Barcelona de principis del segle XIX» is the historical essay by Montserrat Rumbau, published by Tibidabo Edicions in hardcover (238 pages, in Catalan).
It reconstructs daily life in early 19th-century Barcelona through the experiences of the Baron of Maldà and other witnesses, such as the rector of Vallvidrera or the chronicler Raimon Ferrer. The city moves from a prosperous, artisanal stage to the suffering of a military occupation that ruins many Barcelonans and drives them into exile.
First edition published in April 1993. It is the continuation of «La Barcelona de fa 200 anys» and is part of the «Cal saber» collection.
A read for those who want to learn about the urban history of Barcelona and daily life in the early 19th century.
