{"product_id":"2940015806687","title":"Carmen","description":"CHAPTER I\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI had always suspected the geographical authorities did not know what\u003cbr\u003ethey were talking about when they located the battlefield of Munda in\u003cbr\u003ethe county of the Bastuli-Poeni, close to the modern Monda, some two\u003cbr\u003eleagues north of Marbella.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAccording to my own surmise, founded on the text of the anonymous author\u003cbr\u003eof the _Bellum Hispaniense_, and on certain information culled from the\u003cbr\u003eexcellent library owned by the Duke of Ossuna, I believed the site of\u003cbr\u003ethe memorable struggle in which Caesar played double or quits, once and\u003cbr\u003efor all, with the champions of the Republic, should be sought in the\u003cbr\u003eneighbourhood of Montilla.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHappening to be in Andalusia during the autumn of 1830, I made a\u003cbr\u003esomewhat lengthy excursion, with the object of clearing up certain\u003cbr\u003edoubts which still oppressed me. A paper which I shall shortly publish\u003cbr\u003ewill, I trust, remove any hesitation that may still exist in the minds\u003cbr\u003eof all honest archaeologists. But before that dissertation of mine\u003cbr\u003efinally settles the geographical problem on the solution of which the\u003cbr\u003ewhole of learned Europe hangs, I desire to relate a little tale. It will\u003cbr\u003edo no prejudice to the interesting question of the correct locality of\u003cbr\u003eMonda.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47080928477424,"sku":"2940015806687","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940015806687","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
