You could try Damien Lalor's book, Na Fianna Éireann and the Irish Revolution 1909 to 1923 (Available here).

This website is very informative and if stuck it would probably be no harm to contact the owner. It also has loads of photos of Na Fianna Éireann right here (page is very slow to load). Lastly, I came across this record and I surmise it's the same James:

Jun 20, 1917 (IT) Magistrate and Police

...Patrick Bourke, 12 Richmond Place and Joseph Treacy, 44 Dorris street, both tinsmiths, and James Gannon, 2 Henry street, were charged with having feloniously broken and entered the building known as the General Post Office; with having feloniously set fire to the building by lighting timber in it...a crowd of three or four thousand had assembled outside the ruins of the G.P.O...They were enthusiastic about the release of the prisoners; they put up a flag and lit a bonfire...He discharged them with the remark that the police had done their best to creat a riot, but fortunately had not succeded.
