Acerca de este título
Power was not enough for Francisco Franco—he needed a legend.
In The Myth of the Caudillo, Davis Truman unveils the untold story of how Spain’s dictator didn’t just win a civil war—he reinvented the past to secure his future. Through propaganda, censorship, and the rewriting of national memory, Franco transformed himself from a ruthless general into “El Caudillo,” the savior Spain supposedly needed.
Blending rigorous scholarship with gripping narrative, this groundbreaking work exposes how Franco’s regime weaponized history itself—turning defeat into destiny, and dictatorship into divine mandate. From the manipulation of textbooks to the orchestration of monuments and myths, The Myth of the Caudillo reveals the deliberate creation of a false Spain—one that still haunts the nation today.
Drawing on newly uncovered archives and testimonies suppressed for decades, Davis Truman dismantles the story Franco told the world—and the one Spain was forced to believe.
A masterful blend of history, politics, and psychology, The Myth of the Caudillo is essential listening for anyone who wants to understand how power sustains itself—not just through fear, but through the stories we choose to remember.
