Extremely biased and containing baseless errors
Revisado: 02-07-24
Nothing really. Very quickly i realized this brief history was rife with embarrassing numbers of basic historical errors. The Battle of Jenkins’ Ear is called The Battle of Jenkins’ Era for example. A claim is also made that Colombia has almost 20,000 years of recorded history. Ridiculous. In addition, this book has an obvious right wing bias and speaks of the moneyed classes as if their experiences have been synonymous with those of the rest of the Colombian people. Also completely skips over Pablo Escobar and the effect of the cocaine trade on the nation!! I only wish i could get a refund on this because it was a waste of my time.

The Spanish Civil War was much more than just an overture to World War II. It was a war born out of schisms in Spanish society between rich and poor, monarchists and Republicans, the right and the left, and between those who supported the church and those who saw it as an instrument of oppression. For all its brutality and horror, the Spanish Civil War was a conflict between ideals often fought by volunteers on each side who truly believed that they were helping to build a better world.

Well produced and executed. I now feel i have a rudimentary sense of the basics of the civil war.
