ANDORRA- 
THE HIDDEN REPUBLIC 
By Lewis Gaston Leary 
Author of The Real Palestine of Today, etc. 
The first book in English about this smallest re¬ 
public in the world, high up in the mountains be¬ 
tween France and Spain. It brings the reader into 
close contact with a strange yet simple people 
whose government is the last relic of medieval 
feudalism. The rugged land, with its population 
of only 6,000 people, is visualized, and the history 
of the republic is sketched in with extraordinary 
vigor and charm.
