"This is a long-awaited translation of a definitive account of the Republican Army
in the Spanish Civil War. Michael Alpert examines the origins, formation and performance
of the Republican Army and sets the Spanish Civil War in its broader military context.
He explores the conflicts between communists and Spanish anarchists about how the
war should be fought, as well as the experience of individual conscripts, problems
of food, clothing and arms, and the role of women in the new army. The book contains
extensive discussion of international aspects, particularly the role of the International
Brigades and of the Soviet Russian advisers. Finally, it discusses the final uprising
of professional Republican officers against the Government and the almost unconditional
surrender to Franco. Professor Alpert also provides detailed statistics for the military
forces available to Franco and to the Republic and biographies of the key figures
on both sides"
