The sieges of Zaragoza

Today, we travel back in time with two history lovers, Miguel and Elisa. They'll tell us about Zaragoza, known for being the only city that didn’t surrender to Napoleon’s invasions in the 19th century. We’ll discover how Zaragoza resisted two sieges and kept Europe’s best cavalry at bay for months on end, thanks to the tenacity of its people.  Talk about anything you want in Spanish, download Memrise at http://memri.se/29c
