DESCRIPTION

Death knell of the Republic
The Battle of the Ebro was the last Republican offensive of the Spanish Civil War and the final opportunity to defeat Franco's Nationalist forces. This campaign volume looks at both sides' tactics, armies and weapons including the famous "Condor Legion" of troops.

A concise and illustrated account of the last major Republican offensive of the Spanish Civil war, featuring maps and battlescenes throughout.

The Battle of the Ebro was a vitally important episode in the Spanish conflict and, although ultimately a Republican defeat it proved a severe setback for the Nationalist forces under General Francesco Franco Bahamonde. According to many historians it extended the war for an extra year.

However, this book argues, it was probably the death knell of the Republic; their armies lost vast amounts of men and materials and they were left incapable of defending their remaining territory effectively. The consequences for Europe were immense.
