Description
This biography of Irish politician Michael Davitt brings his later life back into the light by exploring his career in the 24 years between his leadership of the Land League and his death in 1906. Davitt expert Dr. Carla King unveils the leading themes in Davitt's life post Land League: education, nationalism, and democracy, prison reform, imperialism, international affairs, the women's question, and the labor movement. King thoroughly delves into the role of Davitt as a public intellectual: assessing how his books, journalistic writing, and participation in many of the leading debates of his time gave voice to a strand of radical, secular, anti-imperialist nationalism that put him in many respects ahead of his time.
