The
Cruel Years, The Story of the Spanish Civil War by Irving
Werstein. |
| Description:
This
book is a must for those that have any interest on the Spanish
Civil War of 1936 – 1939 which was a rehearsal for
WWII. Nearly a million people lost there lives as the Spanish
Republic fought the Fascist Rebels under General Franco.
The war began when the wealthy classes rebelled against
the popular government which had the support from the majority
of the Spanish people. The war escalated and the youth of
many countries came to fight on all side of the political
divide. It gives a good description of the built up to the
conflict and goes on to describe the battlegrounds involved. |
