Sounds like a book worth reading.

Franco's regime was obviously not the repressive dictatorship it is so often described to have been.

Based on my reading of history, Franco's "regrets" to Hitler at Hendaye in 1940 doubtless insured that Britain could maintain the war.

From experience, I can attest that there are few decent histories about Franco or Spain from this period. I've looked for them...and will buy this one.

I guarantee you that will enjoy reading the book. (www.hitlerstoppedbyfranco.com) The Western world knows only the disinformation campaign spread by the Comintern with the help of the Western radical left media, such as The New York Times. Herbert Matthews, who created Castro's mythical figure for the consumption of unwary and uninformed readers, played the same role during the Spanish Civil War, a role no less despicable than what Walter Duranty played in support of Uncle Joe Stalin, while the Soviets were killing more than 20 million Ukrainian peasants. Both were New York Time's award winning journalists rewarded for lying to the public.
