Review: Doesn't live up to its title

It does point out how complicated the Spanish Civil War was, but I get no feeling about why so many people from outside of Spain got involved. There's no sense in the book that people were fighting for "Europe's Soul", just a chronology, a list of characters, and a bit of the politics involved. I stopped reading about half-way through and have no desire to start again.
