![]() ![]() Genealogy & History Resources BOOK - Flight From Famine, The Coming Of The Irish To Canada By Donald MacKay
![]() Flight from Famine is the moving account of a Victorian-era tragedy that has echoes in our own time but seems hardly credible in the light of Ireland's modern prosperity. The famine survivors who helped build Canada in the years that followed Black '47 provide a testament to courage, resilience, and perseverance. By the time of Confederation, the Irish population of Canada was second only to the French, and four million Canadians can claim proud Irish descent. About the Author:
