Jacket photograph: Peter Keen. keywords: Spain History Costa del Sol. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Each year several hundred thousand American tourists descend on southern Spain's Costa del Sol to enjoy the bustle of its Mediterranean resorts and picturesque mountain villages. Tourism suddenly burst upon the land and people of this region in the late 1950s, snatching them almost overnight from a seemingly timeless rural culture and subsistence economy. Before 1900 this had been a prosperous vine-growing region. Ruined by phylloxera, it came to witness despair, flight from the land, civil war, repression and continuing poverty. Then suddenly tourism sparked a transformation of staggering dimensions unrivaled even by the turmoil of the Civil War. Ronald Fraser has set out to capture this saga through the voices of the inhabitants of Tajos. Some sixty men and women-laborers, landowners and officials, shopgirls, bartenders, and resident foreigners-speak of their lives and aspirations throughout this century. Ronald Fraser has skillfully woven their accounts into a richly human book. inventory #3474.
