Description
An illustrated Irish nationalist newspaper, The Shamrock was published in Dublin each Saturday from 1866 to 1912. Acquired in 1879 by the Irish National Newspaper and Publishing Company, which was owned by Charles Stuart Parnell and the Irish National Party, it was one of many similar publications during this period. The serial of the life of eighteenth-century Irish patriot Robert Emmett, which is shown here, was typical of the fare in the paper, although over its lifetime its contributors included Bram Stoker, Hans Christian Anderson, and Katherine Tynan.
