My Mission to Spain: Watching the Rehearsal for World War II

by Claude G. Bowers

""My Mission To Spain: Watching The Rehearsal For World War II"" is a non-fiction book written by Claude G. Bowers. The book is an account of Bowers' experience as the United States Ambassador to Spain during the Spanish Civil War, which took place from 1936 to 1939. Bowers describes his observations of the conflict, including the political and military strategies of the Nationalist and Republican forces, as well as the involvement of foreign powers in the conflict. He also provides insights into the personalities of the key players in the war, including Francisco Franco, the leader of the Nationalist forces, and Juan Negrin, the Prime Minister of the Republican government. Throughout the book, Bowers highlights the significance of the Spanish Civil War as a precursor to World War II. He argues that the conflict served as a rehearsal for the larger conflict that would follow, with many of the same tactics and strategies employed by both sides. ""My Mission To Spain"" provides a unique perspective on a pivotal moment in European history and offers insights into the political and military landscape of the time. It is an informative and engaging read for anyone interested in the history of the Spanish Civil War or the lead-up to World War II.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
