Reviews
“The book includes many excerpts from Bethune's radio broadcast transcripts, fundraising speeches, personal correspondence, and even poetry, along with copious photographs taken during his seven months in Spain. These provide not only a feeling of immediacy to the events described but give the reader a strong sense of Bethune's voice and complex personality.” Publishers Weekly
“Stewart and Majada work with Bethune’s firsthand accounts to vividly reconstruct the lesser-known days of slaughter after the fall of Málaga (Picasso’s birthplace), as a civilian population in full retreat was bombed from the air and shelled from the sea
“This account of Bethune’s commitment to his beliefs, of his pioneering service established in the face of considerable odds, is an inspiring read for any doctor.” Iain Macintyre, Surgeon’s News
