What is the author's style in Iberia: Spanish Travels and Reflections by James A. Michener?

The book is written completely in the first person. It is the writer's first hand experience with the country of Spain. Since Michener's main reason for writing this book is to recount his own stories, his writing is very biased, and all of his tastes are clear to see. He has a sincere love of Romanesque art, yet can't stand anything Gothic.
