Publisher's Synopsis

The Irish potato famine figures as one of the most devastating occurrences in European history. The suffering of the people, the thousands of deaths, the seeming unconcern of government bodies who could have assisted more than they did - all are part of a catastrophe centred on that humblest of plants. Tony Hills brings new light to this old tale.
