The Vikings were great warriors, wonderful boat builders, and loved invading unknown lands. 

The Irish hated and feared the Vikings, for more than 200 years they murdered and plundered along the Irish coast. It seemed they were invincible. 

Then at last a powerful Irish leader, Brian Boru, High King of Ireland, emerged to fight the greatest battle of his life.
