Summary

The famine that left a cold hand on Irish hearts In the first half of the 19th century - Ireland's most desolate period - the landlords ground down the tenant farmers, injustice was rife and starvation stalked through the land. An age of oppression, monster meetings, tithe wars, and degradation. Dualta Duane battles against tyranny and struggles to survive the evils of hunger, poverty and disease. Courageous and fortified by an enduring love, Duane's unconquerable spirit personifies the love of freedom that raged in the soul of Ireland.
