This book is a biography of Juan Negrín, a doctor, socialist, and head of the Government of the Second Spanish Republic, written by Gabriel Jackson. The author offers a multifaceted view of Negrín as a physiologist, doctor, professor, linguist, and financial manager, showing how he sacrificed his life as a scientist to defend the Spanish Republic. A controversial and reviled figure at the time, but one who has become ennobled over time.
Gabriel Jackson was an American Hispanist, historian and journalist. He was born in Mount Vernon, New York, in 1921. After his retirement he lived in Barcelona, Spain.
