My first encounter with the name Kitty Wilkinson was in a book the A History of the Corporation of Liverpool, 1833-1914 by Brian D. White. Twenty years later in 1976 whilst I was engaged in restoration work in the Lady Chapel of Liverpool Cathedral I was to be reminded of Kitty Wilkinson.

He managed to start an apprenticeship at the age of sixteen in Cammell & Laird ship builders, on the River Mersey as a Ships Carpenter. He was married at the age of twenty-one, he has three sons and a daughter. He got his love of writing from his father and encouraged to write by his grand mother Mary Ann. His father was an unpublished short story writer. Michael developed a love of Liverpool Irish history when he was in his twenties writing for his own pleasure at that time. He always had a great interest in Irish writing; one of his favourite stories is The Dead from the Dubliners by James Joyce. W. Somerset Maugham, Oscar Wilde and Jack London is also one of his favourite writers. Among his favourite poets are Lord Byron, Robert Burns, Patrick Kavanagh, and Tom Moore. He feels that he learns his history from the people of Liverpool who are like a vast encyclopaedia, because of their thirst for knowledge. Michael Kelly has always been involved in the community and for many years being called upon to give talks on my writing.

Life of Kitty Wilkinson, Michael Kelly's writing is driven by love of his native Liverpool. In this biography of Kitty Wilkinson he brings to life not only the wonderful story of Kitty, but also how ordinary people lived in the eighteenth and nineteenth century. Michael becomes the friend of his subjects, rather than a mere researcher. He fondly writes of this heroic woman who was much more than a pioneer in public health.
