Rubio Xavier. God Save Catalonia! England’s Intervention in Catalonia During the War of the Spanish Succession (1701-1714)

Llibres de Matricula, 2011. — 136 p.The War of the Spanish Succession (1702-1714) is undoubtedly one of the most important wars in the history of Catalonia. Its consequences have shaped the political and economic Catalan panorama of the last 300 years, and its stamp on society is still so present that battles like Almansa (1707) and especially that of September 11th in Barcelona (1714) have become reference dates in the country’s culture. Nevertheless, the conflict is quite unknown, as there are not many works attempting to explain it from a military and political point of view.
