Adios, Espaņa - Karel Capek

"We were delighted to find that the Spaniards really are Spaniards; the more Spanish they were, the more we liked them amd the more highly we thought of them."
An illustration from the book "Letters From Spain" written and illustrated by Karel Capek, translated by Paul Selver, published by George Bles, London, 1931. Capek, (1890-1938), the Czech writer best known for his plays, wrote a number of travel books in an amused and urbane style which suffused his accompanying drawings as well. He invented the word 'robot'.
