Brazilian Antifascist Solidarity in the Spanish Civil War

A compelling account of the Brazilian volunteers who fought against fascism in Spain

In the 1930s, the world was on the brink of war. Fascism was on the rise in Europe, and the Spanish Civil War was a key battleground in the fight against it. Thousands of volunteers from all over the world flocked to Spain to fight for the Republican cause, and among them were a group of Brazilians.

In this book, Thaís Battibugli tells the story of these Brazilian antifascists. She draws on a wealth of archival sources and interviews to reconstruct their experiences, from their motivations for joining the fight to their experiences on the front lines.

Battibugli's book is a powerful reminder of the importance of international solidarity in the fight against fascism. It is also a moving tribute to the bravery and sacrifice of the Brazilian volunteers who fought for freedom in Spain.
