La muerte de Guernica (graphic version) is a comic adaptation of Paul Preston's essay on the bombing of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War. The young cartoonist José Pablo García offers, through extraordinary vignettes, the story that culminated on that fateful day, from the tactics of the Condor Legion and its dealings with Franco to Mola's obsession and the invaluable work of correspondent journalists such as George Steer. The destruction of Guernica on April 26, 1937 was etched in the European consciousness: it was the first "open" city practically razed during a bombing.
Sir Paul Preston CBE is an English historian and Hispanist, biographer of Francisco Franco, and specialist in Spanish history, in particular the Spanish Civil War, which he has studied for more than 50 years. He is the winner of multiple awards for his books on the Spanish Civil War.
