A highly engaging, yet hearbreaking account of the Irishs plight due to the Great Potato Famine. Gallagher explains why and how the famine happened, but also details the agonizing human experience of life in Ireland and aboard devastatingly crowded ships in search of a better life in the U.S.Ireland in the mid1800s was primarily a population of peasants, forced to live on a single, moderately nutritious crop: potatoes. Suddenly, in 1846, an unknown and uncontrollable disease turned the potato crop to inedible slime, and all Ireland was threatened.Brilliantly presented and powerfully written, Paddy's Lament is a gutwrenching look at Irelands rural peasantry past and how The Great Potato Famine shaped the IrishAmerican community particularly in New York City. It also explains some of the deep rooted tensions within Northern Ireland. Paddys Lament is a mustread for anyone wanting to better understand the Irish community and identity.
