Can anyone reccommend a book about the Irish Famine?

Doesn't seem to be a lot out there, nor a lot of talk about it. Was talking to an elderly neighbour recently and he casually mentioned that something in the area 'went back to famine times' and I realized that it wasn't all that long ago and how quickly our fortunes changed over a few generations.
