A short but truly delightful little history, description and guide to the famous pilgrimage trail across France and northern Spain. Conrad Rudolph economically and movingly describes his journey over two and a half months and a thousand miles, blending history, spirituality and memoir, as well as describing how to research and equip oneself to follow in his and many others footsteps. I think I'll just read the book..
