About This Item
8vo 427pp. from rear flap: "The little town of Santa Eulalia lies on an island off the Spanish mainland. It is the scene of Elliot Paul's story of the idyllic life led by its natives before the revolution and of the horrors visited upon them by civil war. His book describes a town as typical of all Spain as Middletown or Winesburg, Ohio, are typical of the United States. [. . .] The Life and Death of a Spanish Town is an important book to Americans, as it is the first penetrating light thrown upon the lost peace and the present terror in Spain."
