Reviews"Gretchen Starr-LeBeau has given us a deeply researched, wide-ranging correction of the various myths attached to the Spanish Inquisition. Her ability to track and explain the development of those myths over time is remarkable. The volume is wonderfully written and consistently accessible for a student audience. I learned a great deal from it and look forward to assigning it in my classes." --Lu Ann Homza, William and Mary

Synopsis"Gretchen Starr-LeBeau's Seven Myths of the Spanish Inquisition provides an excellent introduction to Habsburg Spain's most reviled and misunderstood institution. Drawn from archival sources and modern scholarship, this concise study presents the long and tortured history of the Spanish Inquisition in an accessible format for readers interested in the intersection of religion and jurisprudence. Addressing common misconceptions about the procedures, effectiveness, and reach of the Inquisition, this work argues convincingly for an updated assessment encompassing change over time and variations across Spain and its empire. Students of the early modern period will benefit from the volume's logical organization, glossary of terms, and suggestions for further reading." --Benjamin Ehlers, University of Georgia
