The university press Publicacions de la Universitat Jaume I has presented the book "El Baleares. El buque que mató y murió en el Mediterráneo", by Juan Jarque, within the series of presentations of the titles of the collection "Història i Memòria".

On March 23, 1937 a warship of the insurgent fleet against the Republic bombed the city of Castellón and caused, according to official sources, 18 dead and several wounded among the civilian population, as well as considerable psychological and material damage. Almost a year later, in the early morning of Sunday, March 6, 1938, the same ship was torpedoed and sunk by another of the Republican fleet at Cabo Palos, where nearly 800 people perished.

After the research carried out by Juan Jarque, the deceased are 19, of which nine were of gypsy ethnicity, three of them close relatives of the author. However, the main objective of putting a face to those who had attacked a defenseless population took a radical turn in the author and he felt sorry for the executioners of his family, especially when he realized that 765 people died out of the more than 1,200 that made up the crew of the Baleares.

Given the high number of deaths and the young age of some of them, between 13 and 17 years old, Juan Jarque adds new objectives to his investigation, and if at first he tries to bring the defeated out of silence, later he comes to the conclusion that even the victors were victims. Nothing and no one can change what happened. However, we can appeal to the sensitivity and education of the people to remember and analyse the tragic episodes of the past Civil War so that the same thing never happens again.
