- Summary
- This book has been written for the student and general reader to study the Franco regime within an accessible framework. It explores the various views of Franco provided by biographers and historians, and acknowledged that political bias and various moral stances are forever evident. The back ground of any character is critical and Part One is a brief summary of Spanish history during this period. Part Two examines Franco the person, and Part Three looks at his highly contentious policies during World War Two. The final section explores Franco and postwar Spain as a pariah state gaining a small degree of respectability because of Franco's attempted manipulation of the Vatican, and his relationship with America during the Cold War--back cover.
