Don't say how it ends though! Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Robert Jordan is in Spain during the time of the Spanish Civil War. He elects to fight on the side of the Republicans. He becomes a demoitions expert and is on his way to blow up a train bridge with a group of guerillas. He falls in love with a young woman and gets advice from an older woman. I found it to be an exciting book to read. There are lots of digressions because the older woman, Pilar, is a wonderful storyteller. I thought each digression was worth reading. |
