This was a fairly surprising read! I expected it to be something of a rather boring history book, but it was a study in memory and identity formation, specifically in relation to the Basque national struggle and women's role in it. It was good I think, and located potential for positive action in collective memory, and made the leap from the sort of "people's history" genre to a positive people's history, one which directly calls upon the trans-formative potential of mass action. Really good, and gave a kick to my historical sensibilities really.
