This book provides an up-to-date introduction to one of the great disasters of the nineteenth century. Cormac O'Gráda's concise survey places the Famine of 1846-50 in the context of the Irish economy, assesses the Famine itself, and discusses its many consequences, suggesting that a less doctrinaire attitude to famine relief could have saved many lives.
