Description

Death's Other Kingdom by Gamel Woolsey is a poignant account of life in a Spanish village during the tumultuous years leading up to the Civil War. This rare and powerful female voice offers a unique perspective on a conflict that has often been dominated by male voices. Woolsey's personal experience of living in Spain, as well as her marriage to Gerald Brenan, lends an intimate understanding of the country's complex history. A new afterword by Michael Jacobs adds further insight into this fascinating period. This book provides a valuable balance to other accounts of the Spanish Civil War, and is a compelling read for anyone interested in the subject.
