This fundamental work by Paul Preston offers an exhaustive and rigorous analysis of the turbulent period of the Second Spanish Republic. Through detailed research, the author examines the interaction between the main mass parties of the left and right, exploring how socioeconomic tensions and political radicalization ended up fracturing the parliamentary system and leading to the 1936 coup d'état. With a lucid historical perspective, Preston unravels the crucial role of key political figures such as Manuel Azaña, José María Gil Robles, and Francisco Franco. This updated edition remains an essential reference for understanding the deep causes that led to the democratic collapse and the beginning of the Civil War.
