Hi Shalva, George Orwell (yes, the very same) recommended Franz Borkenau's The Spanish Cockpit (9781842120064), I believe. Haven't read it myself but Orwell's commentary on this work and obviously his first hand experience in Spain convinced me to put it on my list of things to read. You can find his thoughts about all this and the issues arround other immediate post-Civil War histories in the footnotes of Homage to Catalonia, volume 4 of The Complete Works of George Orwell (Secker & Warburg, 1997) Might be a good place to start.
