Description
Every year hundreds of thousands of pilgrims walk the Camino de Santiago. And along the way nearly that many lives are tranformed. But why? What is it
...
about a walk? And a religious one at that? Especially given the unprecedented lack of religion of the majority of pilgrims to say nothing of their places of origin? What gives today? And what’s kept this journey alive for more than a millenium now? For nearly as long as there’s been a Camino there have, of course, been guidebooks. And even more memoirs. But a book helping us make sense of the Camino experience? Of the history, the myth, the poetry, and the possibility of it all? Enter Camino: The Art of Wandering. Penned by Camino guide and long-time Spanish scholar, Nathan Richardson, Camino is a step-by-step pilgrim’s companion, a read as informative as it is fun, full of useful information and mindful meditation that will give us food for thought long after we’ve returned home from our own particular journeys. It’s the book for the road to Santiago we didn’t know we needed but will be recommending to fellow pilgrims for years to come.
