100 Places in Spain Every Woman Should Go
Discover Spain's Best Places for Women
Patricia Harris began visiting Spain shortly after the death of dictator Francisco Franco and she has since witnessed the country's renaissance in art, culture, and cuisine. Drawing on three decades of intimate acquaintance, she leads readers down to the docks of fishing villages, along twisting mountain roads, into the shoe outlets of Elche, out to the muddy saffron fields of La Mancha. She takes you through the streets of Sevilla, Madrid, Barcelona, and San Sebastian to dark flamenco clubs, sybaritic public baths, endlessly inventive tapas bars, design shops full of mantillas and fans, and into a brightly tiled chocolatería for hot chocolate and churros at 3 a.m. 
Harris explores art and architecture, and tells the tales of formidable Spanish women. Literary, sexy, whimsical, and even spiritual, 100 Places in Spain Every Woman Should Go  is for the smart and curious traveler who wants to see Spain, her way.
