Civil War and World War in Europe

"A first-ever comparative societal and international history of the Spanish, Yugoslav, and Greek Civil Wars of the World War Two era. In this work, Minehan examines prewar social structures, economic developments, politics, militaries, and national-religious questions. He then compares the three societies in wartime as each one was mired in a successive phase of the international power struggle between liberal capitalism, Fascism/Nazism, and Soviet Communism."--Jacket.
