In a country of eight million people, the Famine caused the death of approximately one million, while a similar number were forced to emigrate. The Irish population fell to just over four million by the beginning of the twentieth century. Christine Kinealy's survey is long established as the most complete, scholarly survey of the Great Famine yet produced. The unraveling of fact from opinion, the interpretation of motives behind the London governments' responses, and the confrontation of stereotypes are at the heart of this extensive work. \u003ci\u003eThis Great Calamity\u003c\/i\u003e is an exceptional book, now available for the first time in pocket format.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christine Kinealy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0717140113\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780717140114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gill Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/02\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 504\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.10w x 1.10d","brand":"Christine Kinealy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43925735178495,"sku":"9780717140114","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_bb5805c3-dc35-4b46-8505-82bbf2d4dbe6.jpg?v=1681079041","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/this-great-calamity-christine-kinealy-9780717140114","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
