  Brian Boru, one of medieval Ireland’s most celebrated figures, was an Irish king who played a pivotal role in shaping the country’s history. He is best known for ending the centuries-long dominance of the Uí Néill over the High Kingship of Ireland and resisting the Viking invasions that had threatened Irish sovereignty. Brian’s rise to power built upon the efforts of his father, Cennétig mac Lorcain, and his older brother, Mathgamain mac Cennétig, solidifying his place as one of Ireland’s most effective and unifying leaders.  
  Brian’s initial ascent began as the King of Munster. From there, he expanded his influence, conquering Leinster and ultimately claiming the title of High King of Ireland. His legacy includes founding the O’Brien dynasty, which played a significant role in Irish history long after his death. During his time, Ireland’s population was fewer than 500,000, yet it was fragmented into more than 150 small kingdoms. Brian’s ability to unify such a fractured land set him apart as a leader.

The National Register of Historic Places now recognizes that building, where Lynyrd Skynyrd recorded the original version of "Free Bird" and the Rolling Stones wrote "Brown Sugar" and "Wild Horses."

  Did Ye Hear Mammy Died? - A Memoir

  Séamas O'Reilly

  A heart-warming and hilarious family memoir of growing up as one of eleven siblings raised by a single dad in Northern Ireland at the end of the Troubles. Séamas O’Reilly’s mother died when he was five, leaving him, his ten (!) brothers and sisters, and their beloved father in their sprawling bungalow in rural Derry. It was the 1990s; the Troubles were a background rumble, but Séamas was more preoccupied with dinosaurs, Star Wars, and the actual location of heaven than the political climate. ­  An instant bestseller in Ireland, Did Ye Hear Mammy Died? is a book about a family of loud, argumentative, musical, sarcastic, grief-stricken siblings, shepherded into adulthood by a man whose foibles and reticence were matched only by his love for his children and his determination that they would flourish.  “In this joyous, wildly unconventional memoir, Séamas O'Reilly tells the story of losing his mother as a child and growing up with ten siblings in Northern Ireland during the final years of the Troubles as a raucous comedy, a grand caper that is absolutely bursting with life.”―Patrick Radden Keefe, NYT bestselling author of Say Nothing and Empire of Pain One of NPR’s Best Books of the Year
