Book Description
In 1970, a university student named Sophie discovers a cache of old letters from Spain, along with a love note in Spanish, in her grandmother Maggie’s attic. Thus begins Sophie’s long quest to solve the mystery of their origin. The letters transport Sophie to 1913 when Maggie is reflecting on her studies as a nurse and her close relationship with two Spanish siblings, Eduardo and Maria Cristina. But who were these people? How did their lives interweave with Maggie’s and why has Sophie never heard of them? As she digs deeper into the past, she learns more about her grandmother’s life and her ties to Eduardo. The Spanish Note is a gripping romance that takes the reader through an epic saga of love, friendship, and family with a generous serving of history, travel and exotic culture, dosed with medical lore. Eventually, several generations of two families, Canadian and Spanish, across two continents are united as a result of Sophie’s attempts to piece together the puzzle of Maggie’s and Eduardo’s long-ago love affair.

Book Description
Since 1945 Gibraltar's sovereignty has repeatedly been questioned. A strategic possession overlooking Africa at the mouth of the Mediterranean, Gibraltar is the victim of both history and geography and continues to be the barometer of Anglo-Spanish relations. Arguing that Gibraltar has played a much more proactive role in negotiations than is assumed, the book describes the objectives and actions of the Gibraltarians against the wider map of Anglo-Spanish relations.
