The Right Honorable Arthur MacMurrough Kavanagh: A Biography (1891) by Sarah L. Steele is a detailed account of the life of Arthur MacMurrough Kavanagh, an Irish politician and landowner who was born with a physical disability. The book chronicles Kavanagh's upbringing, education, and political career, as well as his personal life and relationships. Kavanagh was born without hands or feet, but despite his physical limitations, he was able to lead an active and successful life. He was educated at home by his mother and later attended Trinity College in Dublin. He went on to become a Member of Parliament for County Carlow and was known for his progressive views on issues such as education and land reform. The book also delves into Kavanagh's personal life, including his marriage to his cousin, Mary, and their children. It explores the challenges he faced as a disabled person in a society that did not always accommodate his needs, as well as the discrimination he faced as a Catholic in a predominantly Protestant political system. Overall, The Right Honorable Arthur MacMurrough Kavanagh: A Biography provides a fascinating look at the life of a remarkable individual who overcame significant obstacles to achieve success in both his personal and professional life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
