Omschrijving

From the author of Strongbow's Wife and A Purgatory of Misery comes another searing account of a terrible period in Irish history.

When a government official exposes the unpalatable truth about the famine in mid-nineteenth century West Clare he is called to account by the men he accuses.

Abandoned by his masters, he has only his strength of character and the love of his wife and daughter to sustain him as he fights famine and disease in a land teeming with destitute men, women and children.

I enjoyed it very much. A real eye-opener. As a species, we haven't learnt a thing from this experience. Rebecca Bryn, Author of Kindred and Affinity and the For Their Country's Good trilogy.
 

A story that needed to be told. The author is to be commended for tackling it so well. The similarities with contemporary social and political events are a salutary lesson for us all. G J Griffiths, Author of The Quarry Bank Runaways and Mules, Masters and Mud
