Book excerpt: Father Patrick Dinneen was a prolific and highly opinionated controversialist, engaging with gusto in almost all of the political and cultural debates in Ireland in the first three decades of the twentieth century. His Irish-language column in The Leader dealt with an impressively diverse range of topics, from American racism, to English poetry, to the history and literature of ancient Greece and Rome, but predictably enough he devoted most of his attention to Irish affairs. This intriguing work offers the original text preceded by a general introduction by leading Irish studies scholar Philip O'Leary.
