La República en la guerra

This book summarizes forty years of research by Ángel Viñas on the Republic and Civil War, culminating in the composed Loneliness of the Republic, the shield of the Republic and the honor of the Republic trilogy. Vinas writes in this occasion "for knowledge of a broad, non-specialist public," combining narrative and reflection to explain the history of the epic struggle of a fundamental part of the Spanish people against an army in absentia, two fascist rising powers, British hostility, and fears of France. This epic struggle, he says, has been defaced by the victors, by authors who lend themselves to revive the Francoist myths and foreign historians seeking to reduce it to a history of the Cold War. Based on the results of their research in the archives, here Viñas offers an objective account of the dramatic years where "a part of the Spanish people fought against fascism."
