Summary: A groundbreaking study.
Comment: This is a demanding, scholarly book, but one which anyone interested in the historical causes of the Irish Famine should read. O'Neill focuses on a parish in Co. Cavan which has incredibly complete records, allowing him to portray the true nature of landholding and tenancy in the century before the Famine. In doing so, he counters some of the myths on both sides of the question about who was responsible for a potato blight becoming the killer of millions. The statistical information can be daunting, but the use O'Neill makes of it is eye-opening.
