An authoritative account of the famine that drove a million Irish to their deaths, and one and one-half million others to leave for the U.S. and Canada, The Great Famine draws on the oral traditions... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I found this book interesting. One thing that most people don't know about the Irish Potato Famine is just how much the British Government is to blame for all those deaths. Any food that an Irish person had in their possession was seized and then shipped to England and other countries. This is the dirty little secret of the British Government.
