Frontline publications

Frontline has published a number of books, principally associated with projects and research it has initiated.

 


The ‘Song of the United Front’ was composed in 1934 by the Austrian Hanns Eisler (1898-1962) with lyrics written by Berthold Brecht (1898-1956). It was translated into English by Eric Bentley and sung by the International Brigades during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). This 1997 version is sung by Jamie O’Reilly and Michael Smith.

Three years after the Revolution, Cuba was again the centre of the world’s attention when  America and the Soviet Union teetered on the brink of war during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. Young people in Britain took to the streets, much to the disgust of their parents and the national press.
