Winter is coming. I have been preparing the house for winter for the last month or so. Clearing out closets, getting the garden cleaned up by pruning back and getting rid of spent plants, as well as putting out the pumpkin spice candle. Just one candle I have had for three years. I have actually lit it before, but it’s super strong, so usually just having it in the house is good enough. I will have to buy another one so that both of my baby bassets will have one when I die. All this cleaning and prepping is making a mess out of everything unfortunatly. There are now piles all around the house with stuff I either have to put away, throw out, or donate. The garden is a disaster as well with large bins filled with clippings, and garden tools all over the yard. It looks like I am making things much worse. This must be the best time to take a nap.

Spanish Civil War: A History From Beginning to End
by Hourly History
(214 Reviews)
Genre: History | Foreign Languages
FREE for a limited time
The Spanish Civil War is sometimes seen as merely a precursor to World War II, and it’s easy to understand why. The troops of the extreme right fought against those of the extreme left, and the soldiers and military hardware of Germany, Italy, and Russia faced off on Spanish battlefields many years before they fought each other on the Russian steppes. For the first time, the world would see bombings of civilians to create terror. There were secret police forces on both sides and large numbers of arbitrary executions, and the use of imprisonment without trial and torture as a means of establishing state power became almost routine.
But the Spanish Civil War was much more than just an overture to World War II. It was a war born out of schisms in Spanish society between rich and poor, monarchists and Republicans, the right and the left, and between those who supported the church and those who saw it as an instrument of oppression. For all its brutality and horror, the Spanish Civil War was a conflict between ideals often fought by volunteers on each side who truly believed that they were helping to build a better world.
Inside you will read about…
Taking Positions
Outside Intervention
The Terror
Nationalists Triumphant in the North
The Republicans Fight Back
The End of the War
And much more!
This book provides an overview of the causes which led to the war, the significance of outside intervention, and the main events which took place between July 1936 and April 1939. This is not an exhaustive history of the war, but it’s rather a succinct introduction for anyone interested in an overview of this confusing but important European war.
