DAWSON, RICHARD. Red terror and green: the Sinn-Fein-bolshevist movement. *$2.50 Dutton 941.5
20–5381
“Mr Dawson builds his thesis that Sinn Fein is Bolshevism by quoting Sinn Fein leaders, and refers the reader to name, page, date of his authority. He goes back to the earliest attempts of Ireland to free herself from England, and traces the whole movement, the influences behind it and the work of the leaders who led, up to today, when the new (Irish) nationalism ‘starting with lofty ideals of national regeneration on the old lines of the ancient culture, begins to seek its inspirations from modern sources of unspeakable corruption.’”—Boston Transcript

“Will not please those who take the opposite stand, but worth while as a well done presentation of the objections to Ireland’s attitude.”

“As a polemical writer Mr Dawson is a comfort because his proofs are not of the unidentified sort so common in the mouths of platform orators. He does not employ vituperation as argument nor blackguarding as punctuation. ‘Red terror and green’ is a timely, excellent guide book to the present meaning and purpose of Sinn Fein.” W. R. B.
