Really GREAT read

I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I read Reviews some of the reviews, and though I am not a "footnote" Reader, I am not bothered by the Lack of footnotes as one complained about, the author states Throughout the book "Legend says" About did not and the Basque paper Their History in writing. A lot of it is legends, songs and whatever others wrote about the Basque, ie: the Romans. The story is well Engaging, I had a hard time putting this book down. May I read it again as Their are So Many Things That brings up the author Were new to me. It has "legends" May I do more research on. It spans Such a long period, really brilliant !!
