About the author

Considered as one of the most important speakers in XX spanish politics, although he had his degree as a lawyer, he later decided being a journalist. During World War I he covered operations on the Western Front for various newspapers. His career moved him to be a writer, and then a politician.

He was the first Prime Minister of the Second Spanish Republic (1931–1933), and later served again as Prime Minister (1936), and then as the second and last President of the Republic (1936–1939). The Spanish Civil War broke out while he was President. With the defeat of the Republic in 1939, he fled to France, resigned his office, and died in exile shortly afterwards.
