Red Rubbish

This article literally appraises the book "Red Mexico," by Captain Francis McCullagh. This is sizzling interventionist propaganda, vintage of over a decade ago, acidified in the interval. With a vulture, supposedly the Mexican zopilote whose claws drip blood, on the jacket, the words "Red Mexico" on the cover likewise oozing gore, the end-papers crimson, and the subtitle "A Reign of Terror in Mexico," the volume achieves a new level of hysteria, fanaticism and fantasy.
