Book Synopsis The Irish Potato (Classic Reprint) by : Jessie P. Rich
Download or read book The Irish Potato (Classic Reprint) written by Jessie P. Rich and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Irish Potato The work outlined in these bulletins is intended to give sug gestions and some definite direction for teaching children, both girls and boys, in the outlying rural districts something of the nature of food plants, their nutritive value and their proper preparation for human consumption. It is also desired that these lessons in cooking should be connected with the school lunches and that the children actually prepare daily a hot dish to supple ment the cold food brought from home. There are various ways in which this work can be placed on the school program. The subject dealt with can be divided into smaller topics, and one of these smaller divisions developed each day. Probably a better plan would be to devote Friday after noon to the work. The subject-matter can be carefully discussed and followed by an actual cooking lesson. The following week the class should be divided into groups and each group serve for a day during the forenoon. This group will prepare and cook in quantities large enough to serve those contributing to the food supplies, some special dish discussed or prepared at the Friday class suitable for the noon luncheon. The time spent in this can be arranged during the study hours and the noon recess by the teacher, so that it will not conflict with the regular school program.

Download or read book Blackleg written by Warner Jackson Morse and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-11 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Blackleg: A Bacterial Disease of the Irish Potato The attacked plants are usually unthrifty, light green or even yellow, and undersized. The branches and leaves have a tendency to grow upward forming a rather compact top, often with the young leaves curled and folded up along the _mid - rib. The most characteristic thing about them is the inky black discoloration of the stem, at or below the surface of the ground, but frequently running up the stem from one to sev eral inches above ground. The seed - piece from which the attacked plants spring is invariably attacked with a soft-rot, and the disease appears to start on the stem at its junction with the diseased seed tuber. The germs of the disease are capable of causing a rapid decay of the young tubers, and these are sometimes attacked also. Pp. 312 - 314.

Book Synopsis Black Potatoes by : Susan Campbell Bartoletti
Download or read book Black Potatoes written by Susan Campbell Bartoletti and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2014-07-29 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sibert Award Winner: This true story of five years of starvation in Ireland is “a fascinating account of a terrible time” (Kirkus Reviews). In 1845, a disaster struck Ireland. Overnight, a mysterious blight attacked the potato crops, turning the potatoes black and destroying the only real food of nearly six million people. Over the next five years, the blight attacked again and again. These years are known today as the Great Irish Famine, a time when one million people died from starvation and disease and two million more fled their homeland. Black Potatoes is the compelling story of men, women, and children who defied landlords and searched empty fields for scraps of harvested vegetables and edible weeds to eat, who walked several miles each day to hard-labor jobs for meager wages and to reach soup kitchens, and who committed crimes just to be sent to jail, where they were assured of a meal. It’s the story of children and adults who suffered from starvation, disease, and the loss of family and friends, as well as those who died. Illustrated with black and white engravings, it’s also the story of the heroes among the Irish people and how they held on to hope. “Bartoletti humanizes the big events by bringing the reader up close to the lives of ordinary people.”—Booklist (starred review)

Book Synopsis The Great Irish Potato Famine by : James S Donnelly
Download or read book The Great Irish Potato Famine written by James S Donnelly and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2002-11-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the century before the great famine of the late 1840s, the Irish people, and the poor especially, became increasingly dependent on the potato for their food. So when potato blight struck, causing the tubers to rot in the ground, they suffered a grievous loss. Thus began a catastrophe in which approximately one million people lost their lives and many more left Ireland for North America, changing the country forever. During and after this terrible human crisis, the British government was bitterly accused of not averting the disaster or offering enough aid. Some even believed that the Whig government's policies were tantamount to genocide against the Irish population. James Donnelly's account looks closely at the political and social consequences of the great Irish potato famine and explores the way that natural disasters and government responses to them can alter the destiny of nations.

Book Synopsis Black '47 and Beyond by : Cormac Ó Gráda
Download or read book Black '47 and Beyond written by Cormac Ó Gráda and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here Ireland's premier economic historian and one of the leading authorities on the Great Irish Famine examines the most lethal natural disaster to strike Europe in the nineteenth century. Between the mid-eighteenth and early-nineteenth centuries, the food source that we still call the Irish potato had allowed the fastest population growth in the whole of Western Europe. As vividly described in Ó Gráda's new work, the advent of the blight phytophthora infestans transformed the potato from an emblem of utility to a symbol of death by starvation. The Irish famine peaked in Black '47, but it brought misery and increased mortality to Ireland for several years. Central to Irish and British history, European demography, the world history of famines, and the story of American immigration, the Great Irish Famine is presented here from a variety of new perspectives. Moving away from the traditional narrative historical approach to the catastrophe, Ó Gráda concentrates instead on fresh insights available through interdisciplinary and comparative methods. He highlights several economic and sociological features of the famine previously neglected in the literature, such as the part played by traders and markets, by medical science, and by migration. Other topics include how the Irish climate, usually hospitable to the potato, exacerbated the failure of the crops in 1845-1847, and the controversial issue of Britain's failure to provide adequate relief to the dying Irish. Ó Gráda also examines the impact on urban Dublin of what was mainly a rural disaster and offers a critical analysis of the famine as represented in folk memory and tradition. The broad scope of this book is matched by its remarkable range of sources, published and archival. The book will be the starting point for all future research into the Irish famine.
