New York: Henry Holt, (2005) dj. Hardcover first edition - The second memoir by this award-winning author, focused on the very beginning of her career - "In 1946, Paula Fox walked up the gangplank of a partly reconverted Liberty with the classic American hope of finding experience in Europe. She was twenty-two years old, and would spend the next year moving among the ruins of London, Warsaw, Paris, Prague, Madrid, and other cities as a stringer for a small British news service - including a stint in bombed-out Warsaw in the midst of the Communist election takeovers, and nights spent in apartments here and there with distant relatives, friends of friends, and in shabby pensions with little heat." Illustrated with photographs. 133 pp. ISBN: 0-805078061.

New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1958. dj. Hardcover - The first book in his massive trilogy on the Spanish Civil War, the book upon which Gironella's reputation rests.

This novel covers the years leading up to the outbreak of that war. Winner of the National Prize for Literature. Translated from the Spanish by Harriet de Onis. Glossary of persons appearing in the novel. 1010 pp.

New York: The Viking Press, (1983) dj. Hardcover first edition - The author's third book, described as a novel, but far more than that. She was "scarcely eighteen years old when she and another young Spaniard pulled off a daring rescue of political prisoners from one of Franco's concentration camps in the late 1940s. Spain thus became a part of her. This book, a personally political chronicle of the years from 1974 through Franco's seemingly endless dying and the inevitable manoeuvres that have issued, is what Virginia Woolf once called, 'an amalgam of autobiography and fiction, memoir and imaginative improvisation'." 313 pp. ISBN: 0-670330531.
