The Social Contract Press’s web site describes The Camp of the Saints as a “controversial and politically incorrect novel."
Jared Taylor, of the American Renaissance, says of it:
The Camp of the Saints puts the white man's dilemma in the most difficult terms: slaughter hundreds of thousands of women and children or face oblivion. Of course, a nation that had the confidence to shed blood in the name of its own survival would never be put to such a test; no mob of beggars would threaten it.[1]
