Synopsis

The Life of Theobald Mathew: The Great Apostle of Temperance is a biographical work written by Theobald Mathew himself in 1844. The book chronicles the life and achievements of Mathew, who was a prominent Irish Catholic priest and social reformer in the 19th century. Mathew is best known for his work in promoting temperance and abstinence from alcohol, which he saw as a major cause of poverty and social unrest in Ireland at the time. The book covers Mathew's early life, his ordination as a priest, his travels throughout Ireland and England promoting temperance, and his efforts to establish temperance societies and organizations. It also includes anecdotes and personal reflections from Mathew, as well as testimonials from those who knew him and were inspired by his work. This book provides a unique insight into the life and work of one of Ireland's most influential social reformers, and is a valuable resource for historians and anyone interested in the history of temperance and social reform in Ireland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
