Island Brigaders, Hebridean & Clyde solidarity

They came from Brodick and Millport, to defend democracy in Spain.

Told for the first time and based on rigorous research, this is the story of two young men who grew up on the Clyde islands and fought in the Spanish civil war.

 

It is a tale which straddles air, land and sea, parliaments and poets, fiestas, fierce battles, and a legacy of internationalism that is rightly remembered in Spain, Scotland and across the world to this day.

    Island Brigaders

    Very informative book. I live on the Ayrshire Coast and this book was an eye opener as I never knew that men from the Islands went to fight in the Spanish Civil War a subject I am passionate about.
