Illustrated History of Murcia.

Synopsis.

The territory of Murcia has played a high strategic and commercial value since the night of time.

Its inhabitants enter very early in contact with great civilizations of antiquity.

This book shows the history of Murcia in an integral way, from the first Argaric settlers of Monteagudo, to the present, passing through the very foundation of the city by Abderramán II, a fact that will mark the cornerstone of its historical journey.

All through dozens of illustrations, infographics and rigorous graphics, prepared by the illustrator / divulger Pedro Hurtado, which will make you see the story.

A virtual trip through our history where we will discover where we came from.

The book has been financed through a patronage campaign (Crowdfunding), with more than 80 microfinancers and collaborates with the Department of Education of the City of Murcia, the Juan de la Cierva Association and Monteagudo Frontera de Reinos.
