Reprint. - Book News
This book is a revised and updated version of A Concise History of the Spanish Civil War (Fontan Press, 1996), which itself was revised and updated from The Spanish Civil War 1936-1939 (Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1986). Preston (London School of Economics) is an eminent scholar of modern Spanish history who has written extensively on the subject (including a biography of Franco). Here he synthesizes a vast amount of research to track the emergence of Franco's fascist dictatorship, the impact of the war reporting of Hemingway and Dos Passos on American consciousness, and the ways the Spanish Civil War presaged World War II.
