This article literally appraises the book "The Great Revolt in Castile," by Henry Latimer Seaver. In 1521 the great cities of Spain-Toledo and Valladolid, Salamanca, Leon and Burgos, Avila and Segovia, and their sister towns to the number of fourteen-revolted against the policies of their king, who was so busy being Holy Roman Emperor that he had no time for anything south of the Pyrenees but the imposing of taxes and the beheading of objectors.
