«Los presos del Valle de los Caídos» is the history essay by Alberto Bárcena Pérez, published by San Román in paperback (288 pages, in Spanish).
The book reviews the construction of the Valley of the Fallen and dismantles the black legend that presents the prisoners as slaves of Francoism. With documentary sources, it argues that many inmates asked to go there for the redemption of sentences through work, a salary equal to that of free workers and the possibility of settling their families in villages.
First edition published in December 2014; includes bibliographic references on pages 261-270.
For readers interested in the history of Spain and the construction of the Valley of the Fallen.
