Quotes by Raymond Carr  (?)

“The loss of the greater part of the American empire in the twenties had left no psychological scar, for it was lost in a civil war, of metropolitan against colonial Spaniards. Cuba was wrenched from Spain by defeat at the hands of a foreign power her press had taught her to despise as a nation of vulgar meat-vendors or to fear as a Colossus. It was the public destruction of the image of Spain as a great power which turned defeat into moral disaster.”
― Raymond Carr, Spain, 1808-1975
