The Spanish Brothers: A Tale of the Sixteenth Century
The Spanish Brothers is an accurate historical record of the rise, progress and fall of the Protestant Church in Spain. In particular, it mentions the history of the two great Autos-de-fé (Acts of faith: march and execution of the "heretics") in Seville. The only fictitious narrative enclosed is what corresponds to the personal history of the two brothers and their families. This masterful literary rendition portrays with excellence the biblical truth that God rewards His faithful servants up to a hundred times more, even in this life, for everything they do and suffer por amor a su Nombre—for the love of His Name.
