Query: Keeps the "famine" lie alive.

In Search of Ancient Ireland compiles in a popular way what has been promoted for the past half-century. This includes its description of the 1845-1850 Irish Holocaust (or genocide, or extermination) as "famine." One of McCaffrey's spokespersons recently responded to my objection to her perpetuation of "famine" regarding Ireland by accusing me of not having read her books. But in this book she refers to it exclusively (and falsely) as "famine," and does so three times (on page 52); therefore it can hardly be said that she is a dependable historian even if she eschews the "famine" falsehood in her other books and contradicts in them what she wrote in this one.
