Reborn writing: "The book’s great achievement is to connect these recent events with history and a materialist analysis of the class and national forces in play. Its style is direct and urgent, as befits a book on rapid-moving contemporary events, but it is not superficial. Sometimes, outside eyes can contribute a rounder, fuller picture, especially (as in this case) eyes from Scotland, whose struggle is entwined with Catalonia’s." Michael Eaude, Author of Catalonia A Cultural History, Kleptomaniac State, Catalonia Today, 9 September 2018. Writing about the book in The National, Martin Hannan said of it: "The book is a sustained indictment of the Spanish government’s dealings with Catalonia, made all the more devastating by the detailed factual nature of the work. The National, 13 June 2018 Reviewing it in Planet: The Welsh Internationalist, Ned Thomas, founder of the Mercator Institute for Media, Languages and Culture at Aberystwyth University, said: “Past and present are nicely linked through visits to sites of social memory in the Catalan capital… well-researched, well-structured and well-explained.” The book was welcomed in the House of Commons where Plaid Cymru MP Hywel Williams put down an Early Day Motion signed by 11 MPs from Plaid Cymru, the SNP and Labour, stating: “That this House congratulates Chris Bambery and George Kerevan on the publishing and launch of their book Catalonia Reborn; commends the authors for producing such a detailed and revealing book, given the subject’s complexity and importance to the future of Europe; believes that this is the key text for anyone concerned with the future of Catalonia, Spain and Europe; and hopes that the authors will continue in their work to shed light on developments in Catalonia in the future.” Bibliography Scotland's National Question (1995) Ireland's Permanent Revolution (1990) Scotland - Nation & Class Scotland - The Socialist Answer Stopping The Nazi Menace - How To Fight The Fascists Today Fighting To Change The World Ireland - Why The Troops Must Get Out Permanent Revolution Imperialism A Rebel's Guide to Gramsci (2006) Gramsci: Hegemony and revolutionary strategy Bahrain, British Imperialism A People's History of Scotland (2014) The Second World War: A Marxist History (2014) ''Catalonia Reborn: How Catalonia Took on the Corrupt Spanish State and the Legacy of Franco (co-authored with George Kerevan) (2018) References External links Chris Bambery Internet Archive Letter of resignation by 39 SWP members in Scotland posted on SocialistUnity.com Catalogue of Bambery's papers, held
