The Boadilla del Monte Town Hall has published 'The Civil War in Boadilla del Monte', an informative work by historian Miguel Ángel García Valero that reconstructs the episodes of the conflict in the locality.

The Town Hall of Boadilla del Monte has edited the book The Civil War in Boadilla del Monte, an informative work that reviews the main events of the conflict in the locality. The author is Miguel Ángel García Valero, deputy director general of Historical Heritage of the Community of Madrid.

The book reconstructs how the war was experienced in Boadilla, a significant setting of the confrontation in the vicinity of Madrid. To do this, it uses historical documentation, news from the press of both sides, and numerous images that help to understand the events.

The work also includes unpublished photographs and graphic testimonies that show both the development of events and the consequences that the war left in the municipality, especially on its residents.

With an informative approach, the book aims to bring this period of local history closer to all residents and contribute to the preservation of historical memory from a documentary perspective. The Civil War in Boadilla del Monte is already available in the local libraries.
