Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The World Tomorrow, Vol. 3: A Journal Looking Toward a Christian World; January, 1920
Catalonia is frankly in despair of good govern ment for all of Spain. She therefore wishes auton omy, fiscal at least and perhaps political, merely to save what she can out of the wreck. Relying on the facts that Catalonia was always the most pro Ally part of Spain, that it sent volunteers to fight for the Allies in France, and banking on the principle of self-determination, the Catalans sent a petition to President Wilson when he reached Paris in January, pleading that the Peace Conference take a hand in the autonomy question. There was no reply to the petition. When the egg-shell of Spanish government is once cracked, as will happen some day, either by revolution or by thorough constitutional reforms. The Regionalists will play a very important part in the new construction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
