Published on the seventieth anniversary of the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War, From Aberdare to Albacete is the autobiography of a Welsh miner in the first half of the twentieth century. Compiled from extensive notes and diaries kept by the author, the struggle of the mining communities between the World Wars and his experiences serving in the International Brigades in Spain are vividly described. The author was finally able to achieve his lifelong dream to become a teacher after service in World War Two with the victory of a Labour government in 1945.
