In this fundamental work, historian Ángel Viñas reconstructs a crucial period of the Spanish Civil War, analyzing with documentary rigor the role of the Republic, the influence of the Soviet commitment, and the events of May 1937. The book dismantles myths about the origin of the conflict, refuting the idea of an inevitable coup and revealing how the Republic was the victim of a betrayal of its legality by sectors of the Army, the oligarchy, and the Church. This detailed investigation offers a deep perspective on the complex political and economic dynamics of the era, including the fate of Spain's gold. It is an essential read for understanding the causes and development of the war, shedding light on the events that marked the nation's destiny during the 1930s.

Ángel Viñas Martín is a Spanish economist and historian. He has published many works dealing with the Spanish Civil War focusing on the war finance as well as the international relations aspects of the conflict.
