This book is a revelatory book on the Irish "famine". A misnomer if ever their was one. The book dissects the well known story with, a razor sharp intellect, new novel historical knowledge and with the passion of a fired up writer, on top of his game. He hopes it to be as good as "The Great Hunger",the biggest selling Irish history book of all time! Thus he claims, this is, the penultimate book on the Irish famine-Holocaust. He tells the story well, with great passion and enthusiasm for the subject. We start with ancient Ireland and quickly learn about Irelands extremely important role in developing the bedrock upon which both Europe and Christendom now stand. Next we discuss pre-famine Ireland. Then quickly move onto the main course, the horrific Irish Famine itself. Told like never told before! This books makes a clean sweep of the traditional Famine story and brings it into the Twenty First century,with a crisp analytical very, very engaging style. If you think you know about the Irish Famine, think again! Prepare yourself, to be bowled over with a magisterial sweep of an old hoary story, which is unceremoniously tossed into the delete bin of Famine historiography. This book delivers, with robust vigour, panache,probity and bare faced honesty,for those seeking the truth.
