What is Historical memoir of the O'Briens about?

From the publisher: "This very important book deals with the history and fortunes of an Irish family, once High Kings of Ireland, who are now spread around the world. The book, only a limited number having been printed more than 140 years ago, is now so rare that many libraries in the world are unaware of its existence. Few copies are known to exist today, most of these being in private collections. At a time when many people are interested in finding out more about their ancestry, very few families can boast a book of this stature dedicated to their family name. The book tells the story of the O'Brien family from the dawn of history up to the end of the eighteenth century, and the author John O'Donoghue, uses the standard reference works of Irish history to build his story. These include The Annals of the Four Masters, The Annals of Innisfallen, The Annals of Ulster and works by John O'Donovan and other scholars of Irish history. The references used in this book will direct anybody interested in further study of the O'Brien Clan to the best and most scholarly works on the subject. The O'Briens are credited with building many of the castles in the County of Clare. (A book detailing
