Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book concerns an 1882 measure by the Irish government to grant funds to assist in the emigration from Ireland to either Canada or the United States. The book contains reports and summaries of trips made by those undertaking the organization of this massive effort to both select families and oversee the process. Providing a snapshot of an Ireland gripped by poverty, the book describes the intense poverty suffered, especially in the Western regions, and the situation in which many families had to sell off possessions in order to procure seed potatoes to plant and feed their families through the cold winters. This resource is an important read for anyone with an interest in the history of emigration, and in particular those interested in efforts to ease the suffering of the Irish poor.
