 General Description:

"Crusade" means a war for the sake of the Cross, a war to protect Christian people from persecution and death on account of their faith in Jesus Christ. Everyone has heard of the crusades of the Middle Ages. But few know of the crusade in our own time, which living men still remember, fought for this same purpose only sixty years ago in Spain. In just six months of the year 1936, thirteen bishops and nearly seven thousand priests, seminarians, monks, and nuns were martyred in Spain by enemies of Christianity. It was the greatest clerical bloodletting in so short a span of time since the persecutions of the Church by the ancient Roman emperors. Already Pope John Paul 11 has beatified some two hundred of these martyrs. Tens of thousands of churches, chapels, and shrines in Spain were pillaged or destroyed. In response, faithful Spanish Catholics proclaimed a crusade. Against all odds the crusaders triumphed, and the Church and the Faith in Spain were saved. This is the story of that crusade, now honored in no other book in print in the English language. Most people who know of the Spanish Civil War do not understand why it was fought or how it was really won. This book will tell you. There is no story like it in the history of the twentieth century.

Warren H. Carroll holds a Ph.D. in history from Columbia University. Recognized as a leading Catholic historian, Carroll was the founder and first president of Christendom College in Front Royal, Virgina, where he remains as chairman of the History Department. He has published three of a projected seven volumes of a general history of Christendom, along with The Rise and Fall of the Communist Revolution, a comprehensive history of international communism; a history of the Reign of Terror in the French Revolution; a biography of Queen Isabel of Spain; and shorter historical works about the apparitions of Our Lady of Guadalupe and Our Lady of Fatima. Warren Carroll lives in Manassas, Virginia, with his wife Anne, founder of Seton Junior-Senior High School and author of Christ the King, Lord of History.
