description: Why did millions of starving people seem to accept their fate without rebelling? Why did people starve beside seas and rivers stocked with plenty of fish? Helen Litton succinctly deals with the Great Famine with clarity and compassion. With quotes from first-hand accounts, and information from numerous studies and sources, both sides of the tragedy are exposed.
