Human Circus: Journeys in the Medieval World A 12th-Century Pilgrim's Guide 2: The Camino de Santiago
A medieval guide to the still-popular pilgrimage, our source covers the dangerous waters and malicious boatmen, the notable saints and sites along the way, and the writer's very open dislike of virtually everyone they would meet.
