With origins deeply rooted in the ancient soil of Ireland, branches of the O_�_Briens nevertheless often found themselves on opposing sides in the bitter and bloody wars that periodically wreaked havoc on their homeland.
But what they had in common was a proud descent from one of Ireland_�_s greatest warrior kings.
In contemporary times and in literature, Edna O_�_Brien, considered to be one of Ireland_�_s greatest living writers, is the novelist and short story writer whose many literary awards include the 1990 Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Lantern Slides, while her first book was The Country Girls, the first of a trilogy.
In sport, Vincent O_�_Brien is the retired Irish racehorse trainer of six Epsom Derby winners who was once voted _��the greatest influence in horse racing history_�_, while Aidan O_�_Brien is the Irish trainer who as a jockey was Ireland_�_s amateur champion for the 1993-94 season.
The dramatic tale of the O_�_Briens is chronicled here.
