Expolio y Ambición : Guerra Civil Española

Ambition, power, and betrayal intertwine in a Spain divided by conflict. Amid the chaos of the Spanish Civil War, as bullets and ideologies clash with equal force, a silent yet decisive struggle emerges: the systematic plundering of goods, works of art, and wealth that changed the course of the country's history. This book reveals, with rigor and a compelling narrative, the mechanisms, the protagonists, and the consequences of this machinery of appropriation that operated in the shadow of war. Through documents, testimonies, and little-known episodes, Juan Carlos Ferrero unravels how individual and collective ambition shaped destinies, fortunes, and memories. An essential work for understanding not only what happened on the front lines, but also what was contested beyond them, where power was measured in silence and decisions marked generations. A journey to the hidden heart of the war, where official history gives way to the uncomfortable truth.
