Few would have imagined that twenty-one years later, she would find herself in Spain as a deep-cover OSS agent, infiltrating the highest levels of Spanish society; or that five years later still, she would marry a Spanish grandee and become one of the most watched, most admired, most fascinating women of international society.

The End of an Epoch is an autobiographical work that offers the reader the opportunity to know a bit more about the life of the Countess of Romanones and the period of time, from when she arrived to Spain until the death of her husband in 1987. We see how important political figures lived during this era (from Franco to Nixon, Reagan, the Dukes of Windsor or Kissinger), movie stars (Tyrone Power, Ava Gardner, Audrey Hepburn, Lauren Bacall…), bullfighters (Luis Miguel Dominguín, Antonio Ordoñez…), flamenco (Lola Flores), and what the social and cultural life was like in general.[/minti_headline][minti_divider margin=”10px 0 10px 0″][minti_headline type=”h5″ size=”fontsize-l” weight=”fontweight-600″ align=”align-left”]$12.99[/minti_headline][minti_button link=”http://www.amazon.com/End-Epoch-Aline-Countess-Romanones/dp/1508630968/ref=sr_1_16?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1458565243&sr=1-16&keywords=countess+of+romanones+aline” target=”_blank” color=”yellow” size=”large”]BUY NOW[/minti_button]
