Italy's War for a Desert
Francis McCullagh's book Italy's War for a Desert is a vastly important part of the story of the 1911 Italian takeover of Tripoli. McCullagh, a notable Irish war correspondent, asserts that because of the iron grip the pre-fascist Italian government already had upon the news and information outlets, the rest of the world was kept blind to the horrors and abuses executed upon the Arabs in Tripoli. This edition features an early memorandum anticipating Italian war crimes in Ethiopia written by Dr. Charles Martin, also known as Hakim Workneh. Richard Pankhurst's new introduction explains the historical importance of this book that chronicles the atrocities of the Italian Armed Forces in Tripoli. Pankhurst focuses on the legitimacy of McCullagh's accounts as well as provides background on a key player in the atrocities--Rodolfo Graziani, also known as the "Hyena of Libya" and "Butcher of the Arabs."
A Prisoner of the Reds
A gripping eyewitness account of the two tumultuous years of 1919 and 1920 in the Soviet Union-a period which saw the collapse of the major anti-Communist "White" army in the face of a determined "Red" army assault, the murder of Tsar Nicholas II and his family, and the early organizational stages of the Bolshevist state. These earth-shaking events were witnessed and recorded by famous international journalist Francis McCullagh-who was also, in secret, a British Army Intelligence Officer deployed into Russia by the British government as part of its aid package to the anti-Communist forces during the Russian Civil War. Starting at the time of the major rout of the White Russian forces in Nove...
Red Mexico
Francis McCullagh opens the window on Mexico in the 1920s, a nation suffering cruel oppression under the ruthless anticlerical government of President Plutarco Elías Calles and General Álvaro Obregón, indirectly aided and abetted by the government of the USA under President Wilson. In this book, the author reveals the harsh realities of life in Mexico, exposing the iniquitous laws devised and imposed on all things Catholic. He examines the real purpose of these laws, and the main personalities involved, and shows how the resultant uprising of the ordinary people, the Cristero War, led to increased government brutality and the martyrdom of many innocent civilians, particularly priests and young Catholic laymen. Red Mexico is a valuable primary source account of a nation persecuted for its religious faith, written by a man of unquestioned courage and integrity, who was there at the time. We are indebted to Bishop Martín Dávila Gándara for his perceptive and informative foreword, and to María Concepción Márquez Sandoval for her detailed historical appendix.
