Spain in Our Hearts
Americans in the Spanish Civil War, 1936–1939
Adam Hochschild
Discover the sweeping history of the Spanish Civil War through a dozen characters, including Ernest Hemingway and George Orwell. This tale of idealism, heartbreaking suffering, and a noble cause that ultimately failed, takes readers through the war as volunteers flooded Spain to help its democratic government fight off a fascist uprising. Join fiery young women, fiercely partisan rivalrous reporters, and a swashbuckling Texas oilman with Nazi sympathies in this opening battle of World War II. Adam Hochschild brings to light lesser-known yet compelling characters who reveal the full tragedy and importance of the war in Spain in Our Hearts.

Very interesting book on American volunteers in the Spanish Civil War -- written from the left, melancholy and wistful. – источник
