question: Which 1938 book of observations from the Spanish Civil War was written by the author who fought in it with the British Independent Labour Party?
answer: Homage to Catalonia
context: Title: ILP Contingent
  Passage: The British Independent Labour Party sent a small contingent to fight in the Spanish Civil War.  The contingent fought alongside the Workers' Party of Marxist Unification (POUM) and included George Orwell, who subsequently wrote about his experiences in his personal account "Homage to Catalonia".
  Title: Independent Labour Group
  Passage: The Independent Labour Group was a nationalist political party in Northern Ireland from the late 1950s to the mid-1960s.  Sometimes known as the Independent Labour Party, it was formed in 1958 in Belfast by independent Labour MP Frank Hanna, with the support of various local Roman Catholic clerics.  That year, the party wiped out the Irish Labour Party on Belfast City Council.
  Title: Unendorsed Labour candidates, 1931
  Passage: At the British general election of 1931, 25 candidates closely connected to the Labour Party stood for election without the party's official endorsement, primarily as a result of disagreements over changes in the party's rules introduced shortly before the election.  All but one of the candidates were members of the Independent Labour Party which was then affiliated to the Labour Party; the remaining candidate had been adopted by a Constituency Labour Party whom the central party thought lacked the finance and organisation to fight the election.  Six of these candidates were elected, one of whom through an unopposed nomination.
  Title: Homage to Catalonia
  Passage: Homage to Catalonia is George Orwell's personal account of his experiences and observations in the Spanish Civil War.  The first edition was published in the United Kingdom in 1938.  The book was not published in the United States until February 1952, when it appeared with an influential preface by Lionel Trilling.  The only translation published in Orwell's lifetime was into Italian, in December 1948.  A French translation by Yvonne Davet—with whom Orwell corresponded, commenting on her translation and providing explanatory notes—in 1938–39, was not published until five years after Orwell's death.
  Title: Independent Labour Publications
  Passage: Independent Labour Publications is a left-wing pressure group inside the British Labour Party.  It is the successor to the Independent Labour Party and is mostly known simply as "The ILP" in order to maintain that link with its predecessor organisation.
