This incisive history is as complete , balanced, and as well written as may be hoped for. The Irish Famine had powerful trans-Atlantic impact in the mid-19th century and still has strong and important resonance today. Kelly superbly deals with all of the political, economic, and cultural factors in this complex story...but never loses sight of the elemental human suffering. ~ Reviewed by Bill Lewis
