Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dawn in Ireland
N 0 one can doubt that the men who were held in prison at Lewes were also fervent lovers of Ireland. Their vision of the way by which sal vation might come to their dear land was exactly opposite to that of Major Redmond, but they shared his inspiration, and now by their release the British Government have demonstrated beyond all question the sincerity of their desire for the peace of Ireland, their understanding of the changeless will of the Irish to assert and establish their nationhood for all time. And the generous appreciations of the work of the Irish divisions on June 7 have testified elo quently of the value we place upon Ireland's aid in the war.
Today there is not a battle zone where the Irish have not fought with us against the com mon foe; Irish prisoners of war in Germany rejected with scorn all attempts to persuade them to take up arms against us. These are not words; they are deeds, and they have a major eloquence.
