Ostensibly bus drivers, they are also the tour guides who provide the crucial component in the branding of "people, place, and pace" upon which Irish heritage tourism depends. Kelli Costa's ethnography of these highly trained and informed working class men highlights a previously ignored component of the tourism industry. She also demonstrates their importance in providing a visitor-specific vision of heritage that contrasts with the realities of contemporary economic development. 410 0$aHeritage, tourism, and community. 606 $aTourism$zIreland 606 $aTourism$xEmployees$xAttitudes 606 $aTourists$xAttitudes 607 $aIreland$xDescription and travel 615 0$aTourism 615 0$aTourism$xEmployees$xAttitudes. 615 0$aTourists$xAttitudes. 676 $a338.4/791417 700 $aCosta$b Kelli Ann$01883163 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973626603321 996 $aCoach fellas$94499027 997 $aUNINA
