Summary:

In a lively narrative style that will interest both specialist and nonspecialist, Clark devotes the first part of his book to a historical introduction to ETA, tracing the roots of Basque insurgency from the end of the Spanish Civil War through the formation of ETA in 1959. He charts ETA through the period of Franco's death and the transition to democracy and examines ETA's response to the new Spanish government, explaining how the group became increasingly more radical and violent.
