Description: A lack of single women on the island of Great Blasket made life unsustainable. In 1953 the dwindling island population (mostly male) was evacuated for good and its population resettled on the west Kerry mainland in Dun Chaoin. The book chronicles the evacuation, and the events that led to it.
