About the book
This study offers invaluable insight in to a much-neglected area of historical research on this nineteenth-century political figure. Previous histories of O'Connell have dealt predominantly with his attempts to secure a repeal of the 1800 Act of Union and on his success in achieving Catholic Emancipation in 1829. Kinealy focuses in stead on O'Connell's contribution to the anti-slavery movement in the United States. She argues that by using his influences of Irish immigrants in the United States, O'Connell negotiated a position of importance in the international debate over the right to freedom.
