First mention of Dan Brown on this blog
It seems slightly unfair that the Spanish are giving Dan Brown such a hard time re his ignorance of Seville, given the low standard of historical accuracy set by many Spanish historical novels (and history books, for that matter). A couple of years back I struggled through a Catalan effort that had medieval peasants dining on potatoes, surely a worse crime than not knowing when the Gothic began or when the Moors stopped.
