Brian Boru was an eleventh century Irish King who came closer than any other Irishman before or after to uniting Ireland. He is chiefly remembered as the man who drove the Danes from Ireland', and who died at the Battle of Clontarf on Good Friday 1014. But there was far more to his life than that. The youngest son of an obscure king from Thomond, he tamed the Danes of Limerick and the Norsemen of Dublin, overthrew the six-century long monopoly of the U Nill's on the high throne of Ireland, and became one of the few high kings to invest that throne with any real authority. Brian Boru: King of Ireland explores the life and times of this remarkable man and distills reality from myth.
