Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a biography of James I of Aragon. Born in 1208 to King Pedro II of Aragon and Mary of Montpellier, James' early years were marked by both privilege and adversity. His father's death in 1213 placed him on the throne at age five, but his minority was a period of chaos and political intrigue, with the young king serving as a pawn in the power struggles between his uncles and the nobility. He escaped his regents and took control of his kingdom in 1218 at age 10. He began his rule facing threats from both internal factions and outside forces. Through a combination of political maneuvering, military prowess, and strategic marriages, James I successfully expanded his territories and strengthened the power of the Aragonese monarchy. His reign witnessed significant social, economic, and cultural developments, including the conquest of Majorca and Valencia, and the establishment of a legal code that would shape Aragonese society for centuries to come. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

As a young man, however, he took an intrepid and eventful Grand Tour of the Mediterranean and kept a detailed journal. The quick succession of places and events and the constant danger due to war, piracy and plague make this a thrilling read, with murder and adventure on every page. Highlights of the journey include a mountain climb with a bottle of laudanum as the only provision, a daring escape over the rooftops of a Greek village from a group of enraged natives, and dinner with Lord Byron, though Darwin frustratingly reveals little about the poet. The journal was edited for publication by his grandson in 1927, in 'tribute to the remarkable pluck and indomitable energy of the author'.…
