Very interesting reflection profiting of JCI'sautobiography. Nevertheless, I would not say that the best biography of Felipe V is Henry Kamen. I liked more the last book of Christopher Stores

In "Inhabitants of the Deep," Jonathan Howard theorizes blackness as an inhabitance of oceans, rivers, lakes, and other deep spaces where black ecological life can thrive. Read the intro for free now. #BlackStudies #ReadUP buff.ly/22ZokD8
Cover of Inhabitants of the Deep: The Blueness of Blackness by Jonathan Howard. The cover features a dark blue background with a painted image of a Black figure in a sheer white garment on the right-hand side. The figure appears to be deep underwater, based on the patterns of refracted light on the figure's body. On the left-hand side is a distorted reflection of the figure, as though seen from above the water's surface.
