 Guide to Camino de Santiage August 8, 2008
I am planning to walk the Camino de Santiago next May and found this guide to be outstanding. It is light enough to add to my 20 pound pack. The only addition that I would like is an honest description of the refugerios so that I know ahead of time what to expect. I would highly recommend this guide.
 Inaccurate with too much personal angst May 5, 2008
I did not like this book as a guide to the camino although many may find it interesting to read before or after walking. Directions were vague and inaccurate in several spots. A couple of times I wondered if the author had ever even been there. Some spots were detailed too much and other sections were skipped over. Not a dependable directional guide.
Very much about the author's personal journey with some interest from that perspective.
The Best! April 29, 2008
This guide to the Camino came highly recommended to us, and it is the best I've seen! It includes a brief summary of the history of Spain, and the front cover unfolds to show little maps that outline the trail. Each of the 22 sections has a detailed map. Each map covers about 15k noting the various trails, villages and districts, and for each map a short chapter on what to see and pictures of hostels on that particular map. Each section has a blank page for notes so you can journal your thoughts. The book is skinny (though a little bit weighty), and would fit nicely into a backpack. Definitely a good source.
Camino de Santiago January 2, 2008
The book was everything I expected that it would be. It contains great maps and detailed descriptions of the villages visited; distance between them; accommodations and more as one travels the Camino de Santiago.
great guide and inspirational journey November 25, 2007
I am walking the Camino this coming Xmas. I will bring the book with me as guide. It looks very well done and easy. I like also the inner jorney that it suggests. Unfortunatly there is no information about doing the Camino in Winter.
