Description
Students will read about 19th-century life in Ireland and how mass starvation caused by the Irish Potato Famine forced 2 million people to leave their homes and seek a new life elsewhere. Hundreds of thousands of these people came to America, hoping to make a new start. Primary sources and compelling text bring to life the unique history of many of the Irish people who now make up the fabric of the United States.
