Two middle-aged ladies, one Penelope Chetworth, the other her 12-year old mare La Marquesa, explored the high sierra north of Granada in 1961. Together the travellers brought out the best in their Spanish hosts and Chetwode’s compelling account – warm, witty and candid – is informed by her infectious personal fascination for horses, religion and Spain.

A delightful exploration of the Sierra on horseback, charmingly written in the style of the 60s.
