Excellent: I had an original copy 50 years ago (!) in paperback which I misplaced and have been looking for another for a long time. But, to get an autographed, hard cover, copy was much more than I expected. Very, very happy with the purchase. DrDick ~~~~

This is a larger than life story of a controversial matador, El Cordobes, who became famous during the sixties and who, in tune with the time, managed to deeply affect the traditional art of the bullfight.It is the mythical story of a man impulsed by undefeated will and blunt courage,to move beyond abject poverty, fascist Spain and a seemingly pre-set destiny. The book is so evocative, I couldn't put it down.
I read this book when it first came out in the early seventies. I am not a big reader but loved the book and happy to find it again. I am anxious to read it again. It is about the life of the great bullfighter El Cordobas and so much more including history of that era of Spain. Highly recommended.
