'How rich my life has been, not in itself but in its associations': An Introduction to AlfredWebb -- 'Interested in people of all countries, especially of America': A Quaker Family in the Atlantic World -- 'The labours and responsibilities nearly killed me': Social Activism in Victorian Dublin -- 'Some curious characters floated on the surface': Webb's Entry into Nationalist Politics -- 'Iam willing to take any dangerous part': Webb in the World of Parnell and Gladstone -- 'A union of hearts firmly based on love of Ireland': Cosmopolitan Friendship in the Imperial Metropolis -- 'I stand beside you as a comrade': Irish and Indian Political Collaboration -- 'Politics is a difficult and anxious game': An Assessment of Webb.

'All our absorbing interest in our own Irish affairs should not blind us to what is going on in other countries, should not lessen our sympathies towards men and women in other countries who are striving for free institutions as we are.' Thus wrote Alfred Webb (1834-1908), Irish Quaker, nationalist, Member of Parliament, suffragist, and President of the 1894 Indian National Congress. In thefirst full-length biography of Webb, Jennifer Regan-Lefebvre describes a vibrant civic and politicallife in Nineteenth-century Ireland. She reveals how Irish and Indian nationalists met in London, the capital of the British Empire, and pursued a multi-cultural politics of cooperation. Rich in detail and drawingon extensive original research, this historical biography provides a fascinating journey into the political, social and cultural worlds of late-Victorian imperialism, and provides a new assessment of the Irish role within it.
