When Scotland's 1846 potato crop was wiped out by blight, the country was plunged into crisis. The dramatic events that followed have long been ignored or forgotten. Now, in James Hunter, they have their historian. The story he tells is, by turns, moving, anger-making and inspiring.

In this book James Hunter tells the story of the Sutherland Clearances.
