Blasco Ibáñez, writer and elected official, was first prosecuted for his political beliefs at age seventeen. Ibáñez founded EL PUEBLO in 1893, a vehicle for political passions and opposition to the monarchy.

Ibáñez's most well known literary works include "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" and "Mare Nostrum" focusing on the social impact of war.
A small amount of correspondence written by the prominent Spanish writer and Republican sympathizer from Nice, France to individuals in the United States at the conclusion of World War I, regarding a lecture tour of the United States.
