He also co-hosts a podcast entitled History's Most which looks at lesser-known events and figures from history and has covered twentieth-century Spain in depth.
...a well-documented and attractively illustrated history of volunteers who sided with the government. -- Toy Soldier Collector & Historical Figures Clifford addresses the communist bias in the selection of officers, which often led to serious casualties due to inept but politically connected commanders, and the suppression of political dissenters, both matters usually ignored in books on the brigades. He also handles the larger war rather well, noting that atrocities were perpetrated by both sides. A good book on a contentious subject. -- The NYMAS Review
