The Anarchists in the Spanish Civil War Volume 2

by Robert Alexander

This is the first comprehensive analysis of the part played by the anarchists both during the conflict and in their unique social and economic experiments behind the lines. On the emergence of new evidence, Professor Alexander has been able to cast new light on many areas, notably their defense of Madrid and also of life in the worker-controlled rural and urban collectives.
