DESCRIPTION:
But by the next year, the Irish would see the potato blight destroy the crops and thousands will die of starvation. Western Ireland rejoiced in October 1844 because the potato crop was the best it had been. Soon a great migration to America would begin as the hopelessness of the situation finally sinks in. In this fourth and final book of the Galway Chronicles, the story of Kate, Joseph, and the inhabitants of the village of Ballyknockanor continues with Joseph's dramatic return to his estate and the beginning of the terrible years of the Irish potato famine.
