Tom Buchanan publishes new book: ‘Spain Mad’

Tom Buchanan, Professor of Modern British and European History and Official Fellow at Kellogg has released a new book – ‘Spain Mad’: British Engagement with the Spanish Civil War.

Tom was elected a Fellow of the College in October 1990, six months after Kellogg was founded. He has authored three books and several articles on British involvement in the Spanish Civil War. His latest publication takes inspiration from a police informer’s comment that his workmates had gone “Spain mad” in response to the Spanish Civil War. Using biographical studies, the book serves as a detailed exploration into the nature of British engagement with the conflict. The book starts by illustrating an analysis of the subject and examining the available evidence. Tom’s book is based on extensive new research, with many of the selected subjects having never previously been studied in any depth.

“Spain Mad”: British Engagement with the Spanish Civil War is available to buy in hardback, paperback and ebook from Liverpool University Press.
