About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Book Preview: #1 I was born in 1912 in Barcelona, Spain. I grew up near the railway line, and my mother always spoke Catalan at home, but never Castilian. We were first and foremost Spaniards, and we never felt the sting of separatism.
#2 My father, Juan Pujol, was a Catalan through and through. He had a difficult childhood, but he was able to set up his own little factory and become the most important dye-house in Barcelona. He was extremely honest and noble, and he instilled those qualities in me.
#3 My father was a loving and caring man, who was always there for me. He not only broke his own toys, but also those of his children. He would take us for long walks along the beach, and buy us cakes and sweets when we were in the hospital.
#4 My father was a liberal who believed in freedom. He never attended political gatherings or party meetings, and he abhorred oppression. He taught me to respect the individuality of human beings, their sorrows and their sufferings, be they rich or poor, good or evil, black or white.

#5
I have never borne any grudge against the German people, and I have always admired their industry and their love of tradition. They were deeply humiliated and left with no friends to comfort them in 1918, when an ambitious and cruel human being arose and cajoled them with his empty verbosity.
#6
I fought against injustice and iniquity with the only weapons I had available: my words.
