The Yoke and the Arrows: A Report on Spain is a book written by Herbert L. Matthews. The book is a comprehensive report on the political and social situation in Spain during the early years of the Franco regime. Matthews, an American journalist, travelled extensively throughout Spain in the 1940s, interviewing politicians, intellectuals, and ordinary citizens. The book provides a detailed account of the brutal repression that took place during the Spanish Civil War and the subsequent dictatorship. Matthews describes the censorship and propaganda that characterized the Franco regime, as well as the widespread poverty and oppression faced by the Spanish people. The title of the book refers to the symbols of the Franco regime: the yoke, representing oppression, and the arrows, representing the fascist ideology of the regime. Matthews argues that the Spanish people were living under a yoke of oppression and that the regime was using fascist ideology to maintain its grip on power. The Yoke and the Arrows: A Report on Spain is considered a seminal work on the history of Spain during the Franco regime. It provides a valuable insight into the political and social conditions of the time and is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Spain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
