Pickpick

Damning account of how the English government suppressed Ireland's economy for centuries, then victim blamed them when the famine happened and mostly refused to help. Lots of quotes from respected English officials expressing anti-Irish and anti-Catholic bigotry and occasionally coming right out and publicly stating the famine was a fortuitous way to bring down the unsustainable population. Good but long and repetitive.

TheBookHippie I have this on my list to read. 3d
LitStephanie @TheBookHippie I listened to the audio but would have preferred print to be able to skip ahead on repetitive parts. 3d
Texreader I read another book about this and it just infuriated me!! I‘ll have to stack this one too. 3d
TheBookHippie @LitStephanie I can‘t do audio -so it‘ll be print! 3d
