Why be satisfied with leftist propaganda on the Spanish Civil War? Carroll's treatment of the events of 1936 is singular in Anglo-American scholarship for seeing the conflict for what is truly was: a death struggle against the Christian faith and a war against Christian civilization in Europe. This outstanding work of scholarship illustrates the phenomenon of the traditionalist as revisionist: the distortions of decades of Marxist historiography are overturned in Carroll's narration of the bloody struggle to preserve Western civilization in the heart of 20th century Europe.

I also hadn't known about the indifferent-to-bad relations between the Carlists -- the Catholic faction of the war, anti-centralization and of a piece with the other 'political Catholic' factions of the interwar period, and the one Carroll is most on the side of -- and the Nationalists proper; if all you know of the Spanish Civil War is Hemingway and/or pro-Republican historians, this would be a good thing to read, just to learn the argument for the other side (and that, even though they managed to establish centralized control, neither they nor Franco's subsequent regime were quite as Fascist, or as fascist, as you probably imagine).
