520 _a"Through Spain to the Sahara" by Matilda Betham-Edwards is a travel narrative written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the author’s journey from France into Spain and eventually towards the Sahara, exploring the landscapes, cultures, and societal nuances she encounters along the way. Edwards seems particularly interested in the Moorish influences within Spain and the interactions she has with local people, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of culture and history. The opening of the narrative introduces readers to the author's journey as she reflects on her anticipation before traveling from England to Spain. Starting in Tours, she finds joy in the beautiful French landscape, mingling with church-goers and visiting a reformatory for boys, which highlights themes of redemption and education. The author expresses her thoughts on the Saracen influence in European history while preparing for her trip across the Pyrenees into Spain. Through her keen observations and encounters, she sets a tone of curiosity and reflection, suggesting that her travels will be filled with both personal growth and discoveries of the rich cultural tapestry of the regions she visits.
