''A Twelve Months’ Residence in Ireland: During the Famine and the Public Works, 1846 and 1847'' is a book written by William Henry Smith in 1848. The book is a personal account of Smith’s experiences during his twelve-month stay in Ireland, during the period of the Great Famine. The Great Famine was a period of mass starvation, disease, and emigration in Ireland between 1845 and 1852. In the book, Smith provides a detailed description of the conditions in Ireland during this time, including the impact of the famine on the population, the government’s response to the crisis, and the public works programs that were established to provide employment for the Irish people. Smith also describes the people he met during his stay, including the landlords, the peasants, and the relief workers. The book is considered an important historical document, as it provides a first-hand account of the Great Famine from the perspective of an outsider. Smith’s observations and insights into the social and economic conditions of Ireland during this time provide valuable insight into the causes and consequences of the famine. The book is also notable for its detailed descriptions of the landscape and culture of Ireland, as well as its portrayal of the resilience and resourcefulness of the Irish people in the face of adversity.With Suggestions To Meet The Coming Crisis.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
