A cabinet of curiosities, a tourist guide and a prose poem, descriptions that all apply to this book that takes a fresh look at the city of Barcelona. Its monuments, avenues, remarkable buildings and forgotten squares provide the inspiration for a wealth of surprising connections with the history of art and literature. Every corner of the city is Borges' Aleph, a point where perhaps not the entire universe but certainly some of its more unusual, poetic and amusing quarters are to be found. The 'secret museum' begins in the dazzling streets of Barcelona and extends into the reader's cultural memory and imagination.

As a tourist destination, Barcelona is the 10th most-visited city in the world ! After London and Paris, it's the 3rd most-visited city in Europe. I've just recently completed my first visit to Barcelona, and, with the city having almost 8 million tourists every year, there's no wonder that it's got to be one of the best cities in the world to visit. So many millions can't be wrong ! From the first day to the last, I loved the hustle and bustle of the city, from the locals, with their laid-back and calm, relaxed lifestyle, to the tourists rushing around trying to see and do everything that they can within their short holiday timescales. Barcelona is a pretty easy city to get around. It has a decent transport network, and a cleverly designed "diagonal" road, that makes traversing the city easier for major road traffic.Barcelona is an internationally-renowned tourist destination, with numerous wonderful recreational areas, and, in my opinion, has one of the best beaches in the world. It has a mild and warm climate, vast swathes of historical monuments and buildings, eight UNESCO World Heritage sites, many decent-quality hotels, and a fantastically developed infrastructure for the tourist to get around.Barcelona is the capital city of the autonomous community of Catalonia in Spain. It's the 2nd largest city in the country, and has a population in excess of 1.6 million people. About 5 million people live in the metropolitan area of Barcelona.

It is bound in the west by the Serra de Collserola mountain range.Originally founded as a Roman city during the Middle Ages, Barcelona became the capital of the Count of Barcelona. After merging with the Kingdom of Aragon, Barcelona continued to be an important city in the Crown of Aragon. Besieged several times during its history, Barcelona has a rich cultural heritage and today it's an important cultural centre and a major tourist destination. Of particularly note are the architectural works of Antoni Gaudi and Lluis Domenech i Montaner. These works have been designated as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The city has hosted the 1992 Summer Olympics. It's also host to many other world-class expositions and conferences, as well as many other international sporting competitions and tournaments.

A no-holds-barred exposé on the financial transactions of the world's favourite sport The transfer fees clubs pay to sign top players now top €4 billion a year but much of the money has been flowing out of the game. A small group of wealthy investors including Russian oligarchs, English racehorse owners and a former billionaire gold miner have seized the opportunity to enter this booming market. Some have moved in on the territory of banks and lent money to clubs in exchange for a share in fees generated by Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar and dozens more of today's stars. Others have acquired obscure teams to get a piece of the pie. Even as the global financial crisis sent fortunes tumbling this select group found a profitable place to park their money. The size of the transfer market has continued to rise –- it increased seven-fold in value the last two decades, more than the FTSE share index. Between them, these wealthy investors have amassed hundreds of millions of euros in profits. At the same time, they have managed to stay out of the spotlight the world’s most popular sport brings. Football’s Secret Trade follows the money along a trail very few know about, from nondescript offices in the U.K. and ramshackle stadiums of South American clubs you have probably never heard of to offshore bank accounts in the Caribbean. Warning – you won’t see a major transfer deal in the same light again.

This book deals with the events leading up to the 1936 Popular Olympics which would have united the Popular Front in opposition to the Berlin Olympics. It also discusses the days after the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War which began on the same day the games were due to start. Using a variety of primary and secondary sources, the book traces the biographies of several Popular Olympians who would go on to volunteer in the Spanish Civil War. The book also examines the planned events and locations for the Popular Olympics as well as the international funding that the games secured. The book argues that the events were a departure from Workers’ Sport as well as the IOC’s Olympic games and represented an important cultural manifestation of the Popular Front.
