In 'The Myths of Francoism', Pío Moa addresses a crucial stage in the history of Spain to dismantle the false topics that have been consecrated as truths over the years. The author critically analyzes the different versions of this historical period, establishing comparisons between Franco and politicians of his time such as Mussolini, Hitler, Roosevelt, Churchill, Adenauer, De Gasperi or De Gaulle. This book tries to answer, among many other questions, what did Franco represent in the history of the 20th century? Why did it arise and what problems did it try to solve? Did he defeat a democracy? Why didn't he enter the world war? What was his role in the cold war?
Luis Pío Moa Rodríguez better known as simply Pío Moa, is a Spanish writer and journalist. He has authored historical essays about the origins of the Spanish Civil War, the Second Republic in Spain, Francoism and the various political movements of that era.
