Generalissimo Franco Portrait by Dewitt Mackenzie
In Madrid and at El Pardo the interview portrays Franco as an anomaly of calm and self possession. Mackenzie describes the Generalissimo as a studious yet commanding leader who enjoys winter hunting and summer fishing while living in a royal palace guarded by Moorish soildiers. He notes Franco’s fitness at 55 and his measured, unflustered responses to blunt questions.
