SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"This book examines the internal controversies of the Roosevelt administration in connection with Spain, the role of the President in these controversies, and the foundations of the policy that was followed from the outbreak of the Civil War until the launching of Operation Torch in 1942. Joan Maria Thomas offers important insights into the personal and political relations between the notable figures of the time, reexamining them in light of recent research and helping to reconsider some of the received wisdom that has marked the historiography of the period."--Jacket.
