"Bundoranese"

 

T.C. Connolly calls the people of Bundoran"Bundoranese". ​

 

The -ese suffix is one of the many intriguing historical insights from the book:

"The Walk to the Fairy Bridge, over Aughross Hill, is a favorite walk of the Bundoranese" (pg.11).

 

Although Chapter I and VI focus purely on the Bundoran areaBundoran is also mentioned in most chapters given that through the whole journey in the guide-bookevery adventuring chapter "represents one day's tour from Bundoran".
