Reviews
David Goutor's biography adds to our growing knowledge of the role of Canadians in the important and still very much contested history of the Spanish Civil War. The often altruistic, "premature anti-fascist" volunteers found themselves entrenched in the opening salvos of the fierce battle soon to engulf the world.

Synopsis
A German emigrant to Winnipeg, Hans Ibing recognized the importance of the Spanish Civil War to the struggle against worldwide fascism. Drawing on interviews, Ibing's personal papers, and archives, David Goutor recounts the powerful story of this ordinary man's response to extraordinary times., In late 1936, as Franco's armies stormed toward Madrid, Stalin famously termed the defence of Spain "the common cause of all advanced and progressive mankind." As a German emigrant to Winnipeg, Hans Ibing recognized the importance of the Spanish Civil War to the struggle against worldwide fascism in a way that most people in Canada did not--joining the International Brigades in their fight to defend the Spanish Republic was his "chance to fight Hitler." Drawing on interviews, Ibing's personal papers, and archival material, David Goutor recounts the powerful story of an ordinary man's response to extraordinary times.
