Description
A people starved book by Ignatuius Murphy
USED FAIR CONDITION.
For this case study, the author consulted manuscripts archived in Ireland and Britain, parliamentary papers and other official documents of the period, contemporary newspapers, and secondary sources. To throw into relief the full and terrible impact of the famine, he does not confine himself to the famine years. His study of the later years reveals them as an aftermath, and Before the Famine Struck (a scene setting introduction) fortuitously provides a most valuable and detailed account of life in an Irish parish before all changed, a remote parish by some standards and yet a holiday resort
