Written during WWI, and ten years prior to the Cristero War, the author portrays the conditions in Mexico at the turn of the 20th century. For almost a hundred years, the Catholic Church had lost all its properties to the State, priests had been shot or deported, nuns raped, and the people pillaged by the so called Liberals or Constitutionalists. The "red" symbolizes the men and women who were killed; the "yellow", those who did nothing about it. Francis Clement Kelley tells in layman's language, the story of the Mexican Revolution and the crimes against humanity that even today are largely unknown. Faithful to the original 1916 edition, this book is a "must read" for all historians and lovers of justice. Have a "Look Inside".
