in Spain you had communists, and they LITERALLY decided to fight the anarchists

This is one of those widely repeated things that coincidentally is never backed up by any numerical evidence whatsoever. Bolsheviks, per modern historical analysis, killed a total of less than 20 anarchists in the entire Spanish Civil War, and at least some of those because a spy in Nazi Germany called Harro Schulze-Boysen confirmed a Nazi plot to generate an anarchist insurrection in Barcelona to weaken the Republic's defenses. You tell me to read a book: well, point me towards a historiographical analysis of the Spanish Civil War pointing out NUMERICALLY HOW MANY anarchists were actually repressed by the communists.

Not gonna read

Then simply tell me: which book can I read that details a numerical analysis of this repression, because I've asked several anarchists and never got a response.
