Gibraltar The making of a People (Dr Joseph Garcia)

Winner of The 1994 Heritage Trust Award for The Contribution to Gibraltar's Historic and Literary Heritage. This is an indepth history of the political and constitutional development of Gibraltar and its people. Dr Joseph Garcia was born in 1967 when the people of Gibraltar voted in a referendum for the first time to decide if their future was to remain with Britain, as they chose, or to be annexed by Spain. From that vital juncture in Gibraltar's political history, Dr Garcia looks back to the momentous years of World War ll and forward to the present time; 50 years of an intense struggle for civil rights compounded by Spain's claim to sovereignty she lost in 1704.
