Women’s History Month: What is a medal of the Order of Isabel la Catolica?

During a previous Sunbelt Spotlight with author Dr. Iris Engstrand, Diana Lindsay asked about the prestigious medal of the Order of Isabel la Catolica and what it means. This portion of the Spotlight can be viewed in the video below. Dr. Engstrand is a respected historian, whose work has been recognized across the globe, and she is certainly a remarkable woman. We are proud to have published her book, San Diego: California’s Cornerstone, a sweeping history of the region from the time of its indigenous people to the 21st century.
