Why people recommend it
Spain in Our Hearts by Adam Hochschild is a sweeping historical narrative examining the American participants and international politics surrounding the Spanish Civil War between 1936 and 1939. Pamela Paul directed listeners' attention to the work on The Book Review, reminding the audience of its publication and mentioning its critical evaluation within the pages of the New York Times. Gilbert Cruz subsequently welcomed Adam Hochschild to the podcast to elaborate on the historical events documented in the narrative. During their conversation, Hochschild discussed specific historical insights covered in his book, drawing attention to the lesser-known corporate involvement in the conflict, such as how the oil company Texaco supplied massive quantities of fuel to General Franco despite the official United States policy of non-intervention. The discussions on the podcast positioned the book as a vital, meticulously researched contribution to the history of the twentieth century, shedding light on forgotten personal narratives and corporate complicity during a devastating ideological conflict that ultimately foreshadowed the Second World War.
