«The Irish Famine» is the historical essay by Peter Gray, published by H.N. Abrams in hardcover (191 pages, in English).
Peter Gray studies the nineteenth-century Irish famine and its roots in Ireland's almost total dependence on the potato crop. When the harvest failed in 1845, the catastrophe killed one in eight Irish people, and the book examines its demographic and social consequences.
The book belongs to Abrams' Discoveries series and includes bibliographic references (p. 185), an index, and a documentary section (pp. 129-183).
It is aimed at readers interested in Irish history and nineteenth-century social crises.
