AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Founded in 1895 by Sydney priests who desired a cheap, effective newspaper for laymen who could not afford the sixpenny Freeman's Journal ... The Catholic Press met its readers' expectations, supporting Home Rule for Ireland, Australian Federation and protection for local industries.'
