Walking the Back Roads - A Journey from Donegal to Clonmacnoise
Walking the Back Roads is a snapshot of the country as the author found it, featuring the people he met, encounters with nature, some history and the author's own reflections as he walks his way from Gartan in Co. Donegal down to Clonmacnoise in Co. Offaly.The author took his inspiration for the walk from St Finnan and his prophecy relating to the birth of Columcille. St Finnan had a dream in which he saw a golden moon shining over the North of the Country (the birth of Columcille in Gartan) and a silver moon over the South of the Country (foretelling the building of Clonmacnoise by Ciaran). The author's walk retraced that early journey.
