Explores the range of Franco's relationship with Hitler, from 1936 to the fall of the Reich in 1945. This title investigates the evolving relationship of the two regimes up to the conclusion of WW II and concerns the enigma of Spain's unique position during the Second World War, as a fascist country struggling to maintain a tortured neutrality.
