Elena Garro marchó a España en 1937, a sus 17 años, para asistir al Congreso Internacional en Defensa de la Cultura. Sus recuerdos del Congreso, sus visitas al frente de batalla, las anécdotas de sus compañeros de delegación (Octavio Paz, Juan de la Cabada, Silvestre Revueltas, Fernando Gamboa, Mancisidor, Chávez Morado, etc.) convierten su libro en un relato delicioso en el que con aparente ingenuidad adolescente penetra en no pocos problemas importantes proyectados sobre el trasfondo del heroísmo español republicano.

Son muchos lo que recuerdan a Daniel Cosio Villegas como el periodista que desde las paginas de Excelsior alzo energicamente la voz en momentos en extremo dificiles para el pais. Otros lo situan como uno de los fundadores y el primer director del Fondo de Cultura Economica, o al frente de El Colegio de Mexico, dedicado a su tarea de historiador-escritor, o bien como economista. Sus facetas son multiples, aunque a Cosio le complacia, sobre todo, ser conocido como el autor y director de los diez tomos de la Historia moderna de Mexico.
