Annotation Part 1: Causes of Poverty
First in a four part series tracing the events that became known as - The Great Famine.

Part 2: The Irish Holocaust
Michael Buerk alerted the world to the crisis in Ethiopia in 1985 with television pictures. In 1846 the journalist of the Illustrated London News played the same role for the Irish Famine.

Part 3: Managing the Famine
John Mitchell claimed that during all the Famine years, Ireland actually produced sufficient food, wool, and flax to feed and clothe not nine but eighteen million people. Was the Irish famine the result of mismanagement?

Part 4. The Exodus
"If crosses and tombs could be erected on the water, the whole route of the emigrant vessels from Europe to America would long since have assumed the appearance of a crowded cemetery". - So wrote an American emigration official in the middle of the 19th century. Emigration wasn't an escape from death and destitution for everyone.
