Synopsis:
This is not a historical or political book. Its only aim is to bring the figure of Antoni Maura closer to young people, a man who became the most distinguished politician ever produced by the Balearic Islands. The son of a working-class family from the Sa Calatrava neighborhood, at fifteen he left for Madrid on his own to begin what would become a brilliant career as a lawyer and politician—first in the Liberal Party and later in the Conservative Party—serving five times as President of the Council of Ministers during the reign of Alfonso XIII. His figure is key to the political regeneration movement of the early twentieth century. This is his story.
