Stand by the Empire

- A Warning to the British Nations

Bag om Stand by the Empire

This was the second of the three volume 'Sound The Alarm' series, published in booklet form in October 1954, and funded by the generosity of Robert Key Jeffery. The articles had originally appeared in issues of Candour. It contains, among other things, a damning attack on Gandhi - who was the 'saintly' Nelson Mandela of his day and a robust defence of the Portuguese empire, which - lest we forget - showed more fight than the other European powers during the scuttle from empire of the 1950's and 1960's. Portugal was the first European power into empire, and fought to retain its possessions as late as the mid 1970's.
