In Spanish. "The Gran conquista de Ultramar ('Great Conquest Beyond the Sea') is a late 13th-century Castilian chronicle of the Crusades for the period 1095–1271. It is a work of compilation, translation and prosification of Old French and Old Occitan sources, mixing historical material with legends drawn from the epic chansons de geste. It was produced under royal patronage by Sancho IV and probably his father, Alfonso X." --Wikipedia. With notes and commentary from Pascual de Gayangos. Biblioteca de Autores Espanoles (v. 44, 1877)
