Franco

Against the vision of Franco as a providential figure, a very complete, rigorous and exciting biography of the man who governed Spain for so many years, where the ambitious and implacable military man is shown, the admirer of Hitler and Mussolini; the political leader increasingly paid for his own role, but unable to understand the complexity of the modern state and economy. He remains the viscerally conservative man, as cautious as he is ambitious, skillful in managing people and the counterweights of power. An essential book for anyone who wants to understand the recent history of Spain, as well as one of its central characters.
