Now available in its first English translation, Núñez Muley's account is an invaluable example of how Spain's former Muslims made active use of the written word to challenge and openly resist the progressively intolerant policies of the Spanish Crown. Timely and resonant--given current debates concerning Islam, minorities, and cultural and linguistic assimilation--this edition provides scholars in a range of fields with a vivid and early example of resistance in the face of oppression.
