A magisterial history of “Napoleon’s Vietnam”, by the highly acclaimed historian of Spain In this definitive account of the Peninsular War (1808–14), Napoleon’s six-year war against Spain, Ronald Fraser examines what led to the emperor’s devastating defeat against the popular opposition—the guerrillas—and their British and Portuguese allies. As well as relating the histories of the great political and military figures of the war, Fraser brings to life the anonymous masses—the artisans, peasants and women who fought, suffered and died—and restores their role in this barbaric war to its rightful place while overturning the view that this was a straightforward military campaign. This vivid, meticulously researched book offers a distinct and profound vision of “Napoleon’s Vietnam” and shows the reality of the disasters of war: the suffering, discontents and social upheaval that accompanied the fighting. With a new Introduction by Tariq Ali.

Asturias contemporánea (1808-1936), de David Ruiz, estudia sintéticamente ese amplio periodo histórico que va desde el fin del Antiguo Régimen, etapa en la que destaca la aportación asturiana a una revolución liberal fallida, hasta la profunda crisis social y política abre con la proclamación de la II República española, crisis que alcanzará en Asturias sus puntos álgidos con la Revolución de Octubre y el triunfo del Frente Popular. El autor se enfrenta con la historia del pasado asturiano y sitúa en el contexto de la historia española con la intención de que ambas puedan explicarse de manera mas convincente. Al sondear el pasado en busca de explicaciones que faciliten la correcta comprensión de la realidad presente, David Ruiz va analizando en qué medida la sociedad asturiana, inserta en el marco de un estado centralista, se ha planteado la solución que se fueron gestando a lo largo de los dos últimos siglos, problemas que, en algunos casos, siguen aún gravitando sobre la región asturiana. Una selección de documentos, un análisis del estado actual de las investigaciones sobre la historia regional y una serie de apéndices orientadores (bibliografía, cronología y gráficos) completan esta historia de la Asturias contemporánea con la que el autor estimular el conocimiento y el debate la historia de su región.
