"The Spanish Civil War was fought from 17 July 1936 to 1 April 1939 between the Republicans, who were loyal to the established Spanish Republic, and the Nationalists, a rebel group led by General Francisco Franco. The Nationalists prevailed, and Franco ruled Spain for the next 36 years, from 1939 until his death in 1975."--Wikipedia.

Work Description

Among the many books dedicated to the history of the Second Spanish Republic and the Civil War, Gabriel Jackson's book stands out for two reasons: for being the result of ten years of research and for offering a balanced view of the events, avoiding the prejudices of the extreme right and the extreme left (which did not prevent it from being banned in Spain until the death of General Franco). Both qualities make it still the best overview of those crucial years in the history of contemporary Spain.

Excerpts

THE Spanish Republic of 1931 was born of a unique set of circumstances: a long-term political crisis, the conjunction of domestic economic problems with the world depression, and an intellectual renaissance of great vigor and optimism.
