This article examines the marketing and distribution of foreign fabric,
predominantly English, in the northern sub-plateau of Spain at the beginning
of the 18th century using information from a fiscal source. The official
tax record used in this study was a specific and special tax levied on cloth
imported from countries with which Spain was at war. The details of this
tax shed more light on a hotly debated topic with respect to transport and networks in modern Spain and make it possible to analyze and quantify the
physical volume as well as the value and the destination of textiles.
