This one is a big one and long overdue, I look at the Irish potato famine which began in 1845 and carried on realistically until the early 1850's, Ireland's population was almost halved, over a million people died and a million and a half displaced around the world, often crossing vast oceans in unseaworthy vessels called the coffin ships, which is where the Primordial song takes it's name from. It had been a long time since I raked over the history and found some things I'd forgotten and others I never knew, the effects of our greatest tragedy still echo deeply in Irish society and it arguably took the country about 150 years to recover, if it ever really did.
