MacDonald in 2002 as, "a huge literary talent", Black has also written that Fr. MacDonald's prophetic poem Ceum nam Mìltean ("The March of Thousands") deserves to be, "first in any anthology of the poetry of the First World War", and, "would not have been in any way out of place, with regard to style or substance", in Sorley MacLean's groundbreaking 1943 Symbolist poetry collection Dàin do Eimhir. Black concluded by commenting that had Fr. Allan MacDonald not died prematurely at the age of only 45, "then the map of Gaelic literature in the twentieth century might have looked very different."
