The file contains a complete run of issues from 8 Jan. 1898 (Vol. 1. No. 1)-31 Dec. 1898 (Vol. 2. No. 52). The editor of the newspaper was Eoin MacNeill.

A hard-bound volume containing a complete run of this weekly publication. The series runs from 1 Sept. 1900 (Vol. V, No. 1)-20 Feb. 1904 (Vol. VII, No. 26). The founding editor of 'The Leader' was the Waterford-born David Patrick Moran. He was educated in Mount Sion CBS, and later in St. Vincent’s College, Castleknock. On leaving school he went to London where he gained his first journalistic appointment at the 'Star' newspaper, founded by T.P. O’Connor. Moran was attracted to the Irish language movement and, through it, to Irish nationalism, during his thirteen years in London. In 1898 he returned to Dublin and joined the Gaelic League. In 1900 he founded 'The Leader', an outspoken weekly publication devoted to preserving important facets of the cultural and national heritage of the country. The Leader was an immediate success. 'The Leader' attracted a lot of Irish advertising and Moran saw the publicising of Irish goods as one of its main roles. He advocated buy Irish campaigns but sensibly warned that the Irish people would buy Irish goods only if they were ‘as good and as cheap’ as imports. An ink stamp on the inside front cover and on the fly leaf reads: ‘Father Matthew Temperance Hall, Church Street, Dublin’. Folio, some illustrations. Bound volume with title to spine ‘The Leader, Vols. 5-7’.

Bound volume containing the complete run of 'An Barr Buadh' (‘The Trumpet of Freedom’), from 16 Mar. 1912 (Vol. 1, No. 1)-25 May 1912 (Vol. 1, No. 11). In March 1912, Pádraig Pearse founded this weekly Irish language political journal. Its purpose was to ‘advocate the political independence of Ireland’. With only a limited circulation, 'An Barr Buadh' only ran to eleven issues and had only four pages. Regular contributors included Pearse himself, Brian O’Higgins, Éamonn Ceannt, Thomas Mac Donnell, Desmond Ryan, Cathal Brugha, The O’Rahilly and Peadar Kearney. The articles focused almost exclusively on political issues and paper rarely dealt with social or economic matters. The first page of the bound volume is annotated with the manuscript signature of Tomás de Roíste, the noted Gaelic scholar.
