Reviews

General Franco's regime oversaw the killing and mass incarceration of hundreds of thousands of political opponents during and after the Spanish Civil War. Today Spaniards continue to battle over the bitter legacy this violence has left . This book explores some of the places where the repression occurred: many of which have become contested sites for forgetting, denial or the recovery of memory and dignity. * Peter Anderson, Associate Professor in Twentieth-Century European History, University of Leeds, UK *
