The first book in The Good Life in Galicia series. The book that came from from the 2016 competition, the book from the 2017 competition is also now available. Galicia is a fascinating part of Green Spain, the northern part of the Iberian Peninsula, and sits in the north eastern most part, surrounded on two sides by the sea and on a third by Portugal. This short anthology contains writings about Galicia, including several pieces about the Ribeira Sacra, the Sacred Riverbank. Included are stories and articles about its people and its landscape, including the seasons in the vineyards. Wine is a liquid that flows throughout Spain, and in the deep valleys of the Ribeira Sacra region the grapes and their harvest hold an even more special place in the hearts of the people. Galicia is a also a land of close families and small villages that have existed almost unchanged for centuries. We hope you enjoy this brief look at an ancient land, one full of generous people and natural splendours, and agree that there is indeed a lot of good in a life in Galicia.
