Sí, por favor búsquenme este libroIn May 1936, John Langdon-Davies, the eminent journalist and author, went to Spain to report on the May Day celebrations in Madrid for the News Chronicle. By the time he returned in August, civil war had broken out and many of those he had seen celebrating now lay dead. On this second trip he drove into Spain on his motorbike with his fifteen-year-old son. From behind the Republican barricades, Langdon-Davies wrote this extraordinary eyewitness account, now republished for the first time. It chronicles not only the atrocities of war and the bloody siege of Toledo#s Alcázar but also the human face of the conflict - and even its comic moments.
With introductions by Paul Preston and Nigel Chapman
