A full, vivid and deeply serious treatment of a great subject.”—Vincent Sheean, \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA masterpiece of the historian’s art, Hugh Thomas’s\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Spanish Civil War\u003c\/i\u003e remains  the best, most engrossing narrative of one of the most emblematic and misunderstood  wars of the twentieth century. Revised and updated with significant new material,  including new revelations about atrocities perpetrated against civilians by both  sides in this epic conflict, this \u003cb\u003e“\u003c\/b\u003edefinitive work on the subject\u003cb\u003e”\u003c\/b\u003e (Richard Bernstein,  \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e) has been given a fresh face forty years after its initial publication  in 1961. In brilliant, moving detail, Thomas analyzes a devastating conflict in which  the hopes, dreams, and dogmas of a century exploded onto the battlefield. Like no  other account, \u003ci\u003eThe Spanish Civil War\u003c\/i\u003e dramatically reassembles the events that led  a European nation, in a continent on the brink of world war, to divide against itself,  bringing into play the machinations of Franco and Hitler, the bloodshed of Guernica,  and the deeply inspiring heroics of those who rallied to the side of democracy. Communists,  anarchists, monarchists, fascists, socialists, democrats -- the various forces of  the Spanish Civil War composed a fabric of the twentieth century itself, and Thomas  masterfully weaves the diffuse and fascinating threads of the war together in a manner  that has established the book as a genuine classic of modern history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e“Stands without rivals as the most balanced and comprehensive book on the subject.”—\u003ci\u003eAmerican Historical Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46165738225841,"sku":"9780375755156","price":36.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Kobo eBook","offer_id":46165738258609,"sku":"22e471fc-24cf-3f2e-9449-9466b3b8278f","price":11.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/8980\/5233\/files\/1_70412f99-ec94-4ce8-8745-e8ccbc6b8e4c.jpg?v=1763519342","url":"https:\/\/www.indigo.ca\/products\/the-spanish-civil-war","provider":"Indigo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
