  • Summary

  • The text presents a forceful argument that the Irish famine of 1845-1850 was not a natural disaster, but a deliberate and systematic genocide perpetrated by the British government. The author, Chris Fogarty, argues that the British government's policies, including the enforced removal of food from Ireland, led to mass starvation and death, with a significantly higher death toll than previously acknowledged. The text meticulously compiles historical evidence and sources, including primary sources, to support this assertion, disputing common narratives and highlighting the role of British landlords and officials in the famine. It seeks to expose the "perfect holocaust" as a crime deliberately hidden by the British government and subsequently by Irish institutions.
