ANTONIO MACHADO 2009

In collaboration with Juan Carlos Jiménez de Aberásturi.

This book rigorously, originally, and engagingly reconstructs the history of Basque nationalist espionage from 1936 to 1943.

Thanks to documentation gathered over more than five years from various public and private archives in Spain, the United States, Great Britain, and France, as well as numerous firsthand testimonies, Al servicio del extranjero reveals the human drama and political significance of the Basque espionage services.

The rigor and novelty of the collected documentation make this book an essential reference for anyone wishing to delve into a previously little-known aspect of Spanish history and to understand the development of the Basque nationalist movement in all its complexity.
