Eluding Franco in Hitler's Europe
Jose Antonio de Aguirre was president of the Basque Republic during its brief and tragic history but was forced into exile when the Nationalists overran his fledgling country and the German invasion caught him between Franco and Hitler. More than a mere adventure tale, his story is one of survival. This annotated edition of Aguirre's story, published nearly 50 years after the book first appeared, attests to the timeliness and foresight of his message.
