Forget Angela's Ashes, This is the classic novel of the Irish. Set in Ulster, it describes how the Famine unlike the popular fallacy, hit poor Protestants as well as Catholics. The Author, Alexander Irvine became a Preacher and Union Organiser in North America towards the end of the 19th Century. This is the true story of his Co Antrim chilhood.
