The Chronicle of James I. King of Aragon: Surnamed the Conqueror. E-book. Formato PDF John Forster - Forgotten Books, 2017 -

The idea sprang entirely from him after a private conversation held in the Athenaeum Club in August, 1875. The history of Spain, said he to the writer of these lines, particularly that of Aragon during the middle ages, is so exciting and full of interest, and at the same time so little known among us, that I am seriously thinking of translating Jamess Royal Chronicle into English.
