A Moment of War (1991) by the British author Laurie Lee is the last book of his semi-autobiographical trilogy.

[1] The preceding books of the trilogy are Cider With Rosie (1959) and As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning (1969).

On the day scheduled for his execution a fortunate encounter led to his being released and joining the International Brigades.

The book then recounts Lee's experiences as a Republican soldier in Figueres, Valencia, Tarazona, Madrid, Teruel and Barcelona.

Lee himself wrote that his diaries had been stolen and so he relied on memory for what is presented as an eyewitness account.
