Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of the Spanish Language through Texts examines the evolution of the Spanish language from the Middle Ages to the present day.

With keypoints and a careful indexing and cross-referencing system this book can be used as a freestanding history of the language independently of the illustrative texts themselves.
