...Spain in Revolt" is valuable for the facts it presents rather than the interpretation of those facts. The authors are unrelenting supporters of the Peoples Front and consistent antagonists of the Fascist elements from beginning to end.

Gannon and Hepard have done enough to merit great appreciation in their wealth of facits, the majority of which are well substantiated with references...

The Catholic Church is a tremendous factor in the Fascist cause because it owns approximately one fourth of all the land in Spain. It is because of this condition that we find Spanish peasantry pillaging churches in much the same manner that French revolutionaries burned the homes of the wealthy nobility.

Astonishingly the Fascist Dictator, after cogitating with Italian economists in closest secrecy for a week, adopted exactly the same procedure as had the Socialist French Premier. Il Duce decreed 40% reduction in the value of the lira, bringing it to approximately 19 lire per dollar, and he also sweepingly reduced Italian import duties. Thus Fascist Italy, ordinarily considered a super-Nationalist State, was the first to follow the French lead to tariff appeasement and a better economic world. To Washington and to London was presented a supreme opportunity to join in for international economic peace and increasingly Free Trade...
