Description
One million people died of starvation during the Irish potato famine of the 1840s. Hundreds of thousands emigrated to Canada and America, where their plight was hardly better. The Great Hunger is a heartbreaking story of suffering, insensitivity, and blundering stupidity. Yet it is also an epic tale of courage, dignity, and—despite all odds—a supportable surprising optimism.
