Richard P. Kinkade is professor emeritus of Spanish and Portuguese at the University of Arizona.
"Kinkade’s archival work and analysis are of undeniable value, and
he has woven them into a historical narrative that is clear and at
times quite lively. Most importantly, he demonstrates how Infante
Manuel exerted diplomatic influence not only in the Iberian
kingdoms, but on a larger Mediterranean stage that included the
pope, the count of Savoy, and the sovereigns of England, France,
Sicily, and Tunis. Ultimately, this book is a worthy capstone to
Kinkade’s legacy as a scholar of medieval Iberia."
