by Judith Keene (Author), Agnes Hodgson (Author)
Agnes Hodgson arrived in Barcelona from Sydney in December 1936, towards the start of the Spanish Civil War. She spent the next twelve months as a volunteer nurse at field hospitals in Grañén and Poleñino, close to the Aragón front. Her diary provides a fascinating first-hand account of the political turmoil on the ground and the horrifying impact of the war on her patients. Judith Keene's detailed introduction includes an in-depth analysis of the political background to the war as well as its perception halfway across the world in Australia, and has been completely revised for this new edition.
