«Los cien mil hijos de San Luis» is the historical novel by Benito Pérez Galdós, published by Círculo de Lectores in paperback (266 pages, in Spanish).
The novel is set in 1823, when the French army nicknamed the Hundred Thousand Sons of Saint Louis, under the command of the Duke of Angoulême, invades Spain to restore absolutism after the Liberal Triennium. Galdós narrates these events with irony and popular sensibility, weaving fictional characters into the conflict between liberals and absolutists.
Sixth installment of the second series of Galdós's Episodios Nacionales, originally published in 1877.
For readers interested in nineteenth-century Spanish history and in the narrative of Benito Pérez Galdós.
Benito María de los Dolores Pérez Galdós was a Spanish realist novelist and politician. He was a leading literary figure in 19th-century Spain, and some scholars consider him second only to Miguel de Cervantes in stature as a Spanish novelist.
