by Paul Preston (Author)
This collection of essays by Paul Preston, the preeminent historian of modern Spain, falls broadly into three parts.
The book's title reflects the first three chapters that deal with the hypocrisy and prejudice of British foreign policy towards the Spanish Republic, greatly influenced by the right-wing diplomats Norman King and Sir Henry Chilton.
Their attitude contrasts sharply with the selfless humanitarian efforts of medical personnel from across the globe, including many doctors and nurses from Britain, Ireland and Commonwealth countries whose contribution is discussed in the next two chapters.
Essential reading for anyone interested in finding out more about the background to British attitudes to the Spanish Civil War.
