«Proceso a Godoy» is the biographical essay by Carlos Rojas, published by Planeta in paperback (341 pages, in Spanish).
Carlos Rojas reconstructs the life of Manuel Godoy, Prince of the Peace and Spanish statesman, through the multiple and contradictory views of those who knew him: a choral portrait that traces his role in Spanish politics between 1788 and 1808, from power to the trial that gives the book its title.
First edition, published on March 17, 1992. Part of Planeta's Memoria de la Historia collection (number 61) and includes an index.
Recommended for readers of Spanish history and political biography who want to approach Godoy through the testimonies of his contemporaries.
