This book throws fresh light on a forgotten war that raged in the 1940s in the mountains of Spain. It is a story of heartbreak and heroism, relating the dramatic events in a village trapped between the ruthless Civil Guard and guerrillas led by a legendary chieftain named Roberto. Guerrilleros, villagers, Civil Guards give a poignant account of bloodshed, betrayal and courage. Historian Paul Preston comments: "As exciting as any thriller, yet deeply moving, it deserves to be read by everyone concerned with the history of contemporary Spain."
