212 pages. Bibliography. Index. Black and white photographic plates. Signed and inscribed by author upon title page. Map endpapers. "Some forty thousand volunteered to serve in the Republic's International Brigades, the first army of its type in recorded history. Canada's Mackenzie-Papineau Battalion, about 1,440 strong, formed part of the 15th International Brigade, itself made up of English-speaking volunteers. Among these young men and women were Canada's first dead in the fight against fascism. The story of the Canadians who fought in Spain in defence of democracy is movingly told by a man who was himself a volunteer." - from dust jacket. Clean, bright and unmarked with light wear.
