Charles has a strong interest in the Great Irish Famine and is author of the The Killing Snows, The Exile Breed and Cold is the Dawn.   Charles has used his extensive knowledge of Mayo, the catastrophic effect of the Great Hunger in the West and family documents to back up his story telling with a strong grasp of the statistics behind the trauma of the 1840’s. Famine roads were built as a result of forced labour of the Irish peasantry who were made to work for food during the Great Famine.  These roads remain as visible marks in the Irish countryside.
