Rezensionen
'Julián Casanova is one of the most original and exciting historians currently working on the Spanish Civil War. His books on anarchism, the Catholic Church and the Francoist repression have earned him a glowing international reputation. This short history draws on his own research and combines his trademark reliability and readability in a book that students and general readers alike will find invaluable.' Paul Preston, Príncipe de Asturias Professor of Contemporary Spanish History, London School of Economics, UK
