This novel is the story of the early months of those cataclysmic events as seen through the eyes of some of the major contributors to the War, and also from a group of British athletes who just happened to find themselves thrust into the fighting and mayhem of those chaotic days of July, when the first stand against the Totalitarian Right Wing, under the guise of Fascism, was undertaken by the brave and gallant people of Spain. The War was to last from the summer of 1936 through to late spring of 1939 and over 500,000 people were to lose their lives in the fighting and repression that inevitably accompanies any Civil War, especially when a clash of ideological views are involved. The Spanish War was to be overshadowed almost as soon as it had finished, in April of 1939, by world events which happened later that year. It was though, a major conflict in its own right, which had a significant effect on later events. The blood, destruction and misery caused by the Civil War was to all intents and purposes... “THE PAIN OF SPAIN”.

Written by one of the most celebrated historians of the Spanish Civil War, this book presents a fascinating account of the origins of the war and the nature and importance of conspiracy for the extreme right. Based on exhaustive research, and written with lucidity and considerable humour, it acts as both an outstanding introduction to the vast literature of the war, and a monumental contribution to that literature.

Hemingway & Franco

Este volumen es un análisis fundamental para entender los lazos del escritor norteamericano con la España republicana y su posterior acogida, durante los años de postguerra, por parte del gobierno del general Franco. Los primeros tres capítulos examinan las alusiones literarias e históricas de algunas de sus obras en referencia a España, su relación política y literaria con Rafael Alberti y la recepción del escritor a la luz de su ideología. Los últimos cinco capítulos ofrecen y explican los documentos españoles, depositados en el Archivo General de la Administración en Alcalá de Henares, que testimonian cómo el gobierno franquista siempre consideró a Hemingway un escritor comunista y, por tanto, peligroso y objeto de censura.
