Daniel O'Connell and the Anti-Slavery Movement

Focusing on a lesser-explored aspect of O'Connell's legacy, this book highlights his significant role in the anti-slavery movement in the United States, diverging from the traditional emphasis on his efforts for the repeal of the Act of Union and Catholic Emancipation. By examining O'Connell's activism against slavery, the author sheds light on his broader humanitarian principles and the impact of his advocacy beyond Irish politics.
