Is there an alternative to popular images of Spain - sun, sea, sand and sangria, a hectic night life, art in Madrid, Las Fallas in Valencia, a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, running with bulls in Pamplona, flamenco in Sevilla and tomato hurling in La Tomatina?Yes, a different Spain! Can you imagine being a Celt, a Roman or a Moor, or life as a peasant farmer, or a modern-day politician squandering EU grants?Imagine... gnarled fishermen on the wild Coast of Death, people toiling in fields growing lavender and saffron, or Cervantes wandering around La Mancha gazing at Consuegra windmills, or an athlete standing on a faded Olympic diving board.Can you imagine intriguing places, visible history gradually degrading little by little, once part of the fabric of Spain many years ago, but still visible to explorers who wish to find it? Covering relics of old times, medieval towns, recent and new abandoned locations, OUT OF SIGHT SPAIN shows the way to cool, unusual, often well-hidden remains. Hike on a remote scary trail, or go underground to homes, salt mines and sewers, or stand watching the sunset at Worlds End. Contemplate fascinating artifacts of land, sea and air. Visit vestiges of the Civil War and WW2. Find different perspectives on the big cities of Spain.Reflect on the future of old village bars, rural hamlets at a crossroad, Sergio Leones film locations, modern day visionaries, heroes, painters and sex workers, enjoying some traditional gastronomy along the way.Harry King has lived in Spain for 20 years. He has travelled its highways and byways, coast and mountains, lakes and plains, hamlets and big cities, discovering places well off the beaten track, many lacking directions and even some which have been deliberately hidden by the Spanish governments desire to hide its past.
