Excerpt from The Shield
This is not merely a book about the Russian Jews. It is a marvellous revelation of the Russian soul. It shows not only that the over whelming majority of the Russian intellect nals, including nearly all of her brilliant lit erary geniuses, are opposed to the persecution of the Jews or any other race, but that they have a capacity for sympathy and understand ing of humanity unequalled in any other land. I do not know of any book where the genius and heart of Russia is better displayed. Not only her leading litterateurs but also her leading statesmen and economists are repre sented - and all of them speak as with a single voice.
