During the Spanish civil war, activities of resistance occurred more or less from both groups, on the Republican side as well as among the insurgent groups.

Biografía de Costa Rica es un libro de historia deliberadamente escrito para el lector común en el que se narran los hechos fundamentales de la historia costarricense (hasta el siglo XX). Fundamentado en autores de todas las épocas, aspira a no abrumar a los lectores con un excesivo aparato bibliográfico; al final de cada capítulo, sin embargo, aparecen las principales fuentes utilizadas.
