Heroes of the Spanish Civil War

Club member Clifford Thurlow‘s new book Heroes of the Spanish Civil Waris out this month from Luath Press. A hardback with maps and 16 pages of b/w photos, the book tells the history of the war through biographies of 50 participants – among them George Orwell, Felicia Browne, Esmond Romilly and Jessica Mitford – from more than a dozen countries. In a blurb for the back cover, Peter York writes: ‘Clifford Thurlow’s important new book brings the Spanish Civil War to life through the stories of its ‘ordinary heroes’ at precisely the time we need these warnings.’
