Excerpt from A Son of the Hidalgos
His youth passed uneventfully. He held a modest position in the Bank of Spain, and in 1901 was trans ferred from his native city to Santander. His literary tendencies were already manifest in his contributions to the newspapers of Malaga and in the publication of a book of verses.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a compelling journey into the life of Pedro de Ceballos, a young man from a noble family in the secluded village of Santillana del Mar in Spain. The author masterfully evokes the atmosphere of this forgotten corner of the world, where the past lingers in every crumbling stone and time seems to stand still. We witness Pedro's restless spirit, his yearning for adventure, and his escape from the stifling confines of his family's traditions.
