Francisco Franco Bahamonde (] ; 4 December 1892 – 20 November 1975) was a Spanish general who ruled over Spain as a military dictator from 1939 until his death in 1975.
Spanish Testament is a 1937 book by Arthur Koestler, describing his experiences during the Spanish Civil War.
 Part II of the book was subsequently published on its own, with minor modifications, under the title "Dialogue with Death" (see below).
 Koestler made three trips to Spain during the civil war; the third time he was captured, sentenced to death and imprisoned by the Nationalist forces of General Franco.
 Koestler was at that time working on behalf of the Comintern and as an agent of the Loyalist Government's official news agency, using for cover accreditation to the British daily "News Chronicle".
Koestler had been detained in three jails in separate countries.
 In Spain, he was sentenced to death in 1936 for espionage under Francisco Franco's regime.
 Here, he witnessed many executions, and was held in solitary confinement.
 He was arrested in France a few years later and held in the Le Vernet Internment Camp for subversion.
 Koestler was released and fled to England, where he was held at Pentonville as a suspected illegal immigrant.
