Sir Shane Leslie bol plodným írskym autorom a literátom, ktorý dosiahol úspech na oboch stranách Atlantiku. Ako írsky nacionalista a katolík sa jeho rozsiahle literárne dielo, zahŕňajúce romány, poéziu, biografie a histórie, často ponáralo do katolíckej viery a írskeho folklóru. Leslie bol tiež priekopníkom v podpore írskeho jazyka a ochrany prírody v Írsku. Bol skorým literárnym mentorom F. Scotta Fitzgeralda a jeho práca, ovplyvnená jeho anglo-írskym aristokratickým pôvodom a americkým dedičstvom, zostáva predmetom kritických štúdií.
