✦ Synopsis

Brian Boru, High King of Ireland, is often dismissed as a mythical figure, as all the known facts about him are contained within the several Irish annals. However thirty years of research have led Llyweyln to conclude with certainty that Brian Boru actually lived, a great battle took place in 1014, and Ireland won. Read about the life of Brian Boru and the battle that changed the course of Irish history in this exciting and accessible account, the result of decades of research. ""A deftly written history that reads as smoothly as a novel.""--The Midwest Book Review
