Lessons of the War in Spain

 

Gen. Maurice Duval traveled as an observer throughout the Nationalist zone during the Spanish Civil War, publishing his insights as Les Leçons de la Guerre d’Espagne in 1938.  Although Leçons received swift translations into Spanish and German, it was not until 1940 that an American Franco lobbyist, John Eoghan Kelly, produced an English version, and then only as a private venture.  Kelly and the Spanish translator were not always in agreement with Duval, and they let off steam by adding their own extended footnotes.  This first published edition of Kelly’s translation integrates all this fascinating commentary.  Additional notes by the editor compare and contrast the four language versions, for each translator had a different national perspective and hence each distorted Duval’s text in subtle yet pivotal ways.  According to the German translator, there were no German arms or personnel in Spain; according to Kelly, the limited numbers of Italian troops in Spain were enthusiastic volunteers.

At under a hundred pages, Lessons of the War in Spain provides a unique, manageable resource for any course of study into the Spanish Civil War, and is one of only a handful of primary sources available in English that views the war from a Nationalist perspective.  Includes a short biography of Duval, a book review by Kelly, glossary, maps, and photos.
