Appeasement's Child: the Franco Régime in Spain

By Thomas J. Hamilton

Knopf, 1943, 327 pp.

Here we have the veil lifted on events in Spain since the Civil War -- events which Mr. Hamilton covered for the New York Times. He sheds a flood of light on the brutality and inefficiency of the Franco régime and on the desperate poverty of the Spanish people today. He makes plain that Franco is committed to a Nazi-Fascist victory and that in Latin America he is the deadly enemy of the United States. The account is well documented.
