CIVIL WAR SUNDAY

More Spanish Civil War Books:

An International History Of The Spanish Civil War, M. Alpert, Basingstoke, 1994.

Blood Of Spain, R. Fraser, London, 1979.

The Spanish Civil War, Hugh Thomas, London, 1961, 1977, 1982.

This is probably the most classic account of the war because the Franco regime's censorship and supression of information made truth a lasting legacy of the war until the liberalization of the 1960s. For the first time, a comprehensive account of what actually happened had been created and was circulated worldwide. The regime tried to ban it, but the genie was out of the bottle and led to over 40 years of new scholarship.
