About This Book

El autor recorre las causas y acontecimientos que, a su juicio, condujeron al declive de España desde el advenimiento de Felipe III hasta la muerte de Carlos II. Presenta una narración cronológica de episodios políticos y militares y expone análisis sobre la corrupción administrativa, la presión fiscal, las crisis económicas y las debilidades institucionales. Combina fuente documental, juicio crítico y digresiones interpretativas para vincular decisiones de gobierno con cambios sociales y diplomáticos. El texto aspira a ofrecer una explicación coherente de la decadencia nacional más que una mera sucesión de hechos.
