Event Description
This is the story of three great famines: Ireland, Bengal and Ethiopia
Tom Keneally shares these three shocking histories with his customary penetrating wisdom, and he presents a controversial theory in his utterly compelling narrative: in all three famines, ideology, mindsets of governments, racial preconceptions and administrative incompetence were, ultimately, more lethal than the loss of potatoes or rice or the grain named teff.
