The Spanish Civil War

The Spanish Civil War is part of John Gerlach’s Simple History series, and the second title published by Microcosm (hot on the heels of Nez Perce Indians)! It’s 1936 and the world watches religious powers and fascists erupt into conflict with the proletariat left and anarchists in Spain. This zine presents a well-rounded and succinct account of the turbulence in late 30’s Spain. Complete with illustrations and a logical account of the complications throughout the civil war, this is an excellent zine for understanding history often poorly presented in high school.
