Notes:First edition, 1592, has title La verdadera hystoria del rey Don Rodrigo ...
This work, which Southey was inclined to consider an authentic history of the Arabic invasion and conquest of Spain, to A.D. 761, and is written in Arabic but two years later, is now shown by Conde, Gayangos and others to be a bold literary forgery of little value, originally composed by Miguel de Luna, an interpreter of Philip II. cf. Ticknor, History Span. lit., N.Y., 1849, v. 1, p. 215, note.
