Hi Larry:

"La Legione…" is completely footnoted and sourced. There is a full bibliography in the back as well as an appendix of unedited documents.

As for any bold claims; while I am certainly familiar with what you say I hardly think nationalist boasting is limited to Spanish language writers. :-)
