Heroes of the Alcazar is a non-fiction book written by Rodolphe Timmermans that provides an authentic account of the Spanish Civil War. The book is focused on the siege of the Alcazar, a fortress in Toledo, Spain, that was held by the Nationalist forces during the war. The author tells the story of the heroic defenders of the Alcazar, who fought against the Republican forces for two months, enduring hunger, thirst, and constant bombardment. The book includes first-hand accounts from the survivors of the siege, as well as historical documents and photographs. The author also provides an overview of the political and social context of the Spanish Civil War, including the rise of fascism in Europe, the role of the Soviet Union, and the involvement of foreign volunteers on both sides of the conflict. Heroes of the Alcazar is a gripping and informative account of a pivotal moment in Spanish history, and a tribute to the bravery and sacrifice of the defenders of the Alcazar.This is a new release of the original 1937 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
