SummaryTable of Contents
This 2005 book explores the ideas and culture surrounding the Spanish Civil War. Leading historians offer new interpretations of the civil war and argue that it reflected the cultural cleavages in 1930s society rather than a single great conflict between two easily identifiable sets of ideas, classes or ways of life.
