The Moral Drama of the Spanish Civil War

In conversation with Scott Saul (English), historian Adam Hochschild (Journalism) discusses Spain in Our Hearts, his mesmerizing chronicle of the Spanish Civil War and the three thousand Americans who — in defiance of their own country — crossed the Atlantic to join the Spanish Republican Army and fight the forces of fascism.

Hochschild delves into how he found so many fresh angles on the conflict, and how he understands its lessons.
