historical fiction

I'm a big history fan, so I read non-fiction or historical fiction.

I am also of Irish descent, so my favorite author for historical fiction novels is Morgan Llewelyn. She writes novels about Irish myths and legends, as well as a few other books.

Lion of Ireland - the story of Brian Boru (who was the first Irish Ard Ri or high king of all Ireland)

Red Branch - about Ireland's legendary group of Ulster heroes and the warrior Cuchelain

Bard - the story of how Ireland was settled.

1916 - is the story of Ireland's brief rebellion

My favorite non fiction author is Walter Lord

A Night to Remember - THE book to read about the Titanic disaster

Day of Infamy - THE book to read about the attack on Pearl Harbour


BORU
