Shiaba: Scotland's Potato Famine Publisher's summary

THE FORGOTTEN STRUGGLE FOR SURVIVAL

Echoes of Sunset Song resonate in this powerful novel that explores a little understood factor behind the Highland clearances. Many have heard of the Irish potato famine, but few know that Scotland suffered a smilar fate, with disasterous consequences for those who worked the land.

Calum MacGillivray is a man on the brink of ruin, his harvest failed and his prospects gone. The temptation of a new life in Canada beckons, but Calum is a stubborn man. He won’t be driven off the land of his fathers and is willing to pay the price to protect his family.

But Catherine, his wife, watches her children dying of starvation and knows that practical steps must be taken to save them.

Can their love survive the political forces determined to tear them apart?
