About this product
Product Information
Based on a huge trove of diary and personal letter material regarding principally British and American, but also Russian and French, correspondents, We Saw Spain Die is a study of how the war correspondent came of age. It examines the problems - political, professional and personal, faced by some of the century's greatest war correspondents both within Spain and also in America, Britain, France and Russia. It throws light not just on the Spanish Civil War but also on internal politics within all those countries. The most powerful message is that it re-vindicates a number of America's greatest liberal journalists.Along with the professional war correspondents, some hardened veterans of Abyssinia, others still to win their spurs, came some of the world's most prominent literary figures: Ernest Hemingway, John Dos Passos, Josephine Herbst and Martha Gellhorn from the United States; W. H. Auden, Stephen Spender, Kim Philby and George Orwell from Britain; Andre Malraux and Antoine de Saint Exupery from France. Praise for Franco: A Biography : 'No history of modern Spain can be written from now on without constant recourse to the lavish and fascinating details and the penetrating analyses of this masterly work' - London Review of Books . 'It is difficult to see this marvellous, brilliantly written and surely authoritative biography ever being matched. It is a book which any historian would be proud to have written' - Ian Kershaw.'Preston's book is a work of great scholarship, making use of much new material. But it is not dry: He is a master of narrative, with an eye for the arresting and sometimes horrific detail. A gripping read' - Daily Telegraph . 'Brilliantly clear-minded and detailed...the definitive biography of Franco; there is nothing to match it in Spanish. It is a triumph of clarity, judicious analysis and detailed research' - Colm Toibin, Sunday Times .
