“Converso Non-Conformism in Early Modern Spain: Bad Blood and Faith sets out to account for the experience of those Spanish Jews, perhaps one-third of the total Spanish Jewish population, who converted to Catholicism after the Reconquista… An outstanding study of its subject, Converso Non-Conformism in Early Modern Spain looks to be advancing an agenda setting argument.” (Crawford Gribben, New Books network, newbooksnetwork.com, February 07, 2019)

Kevin Ingram is Professor of History at Saint Louis University, Madrid Campus, Spain.
