The Road to Santiago

Book Summary by: jeiop    

Original Author: José Eduardo Iop
This abstract was translated from No Caminho de Santiago
The book covers many aspects, the historical, cultural, religious, legends, and folklore of the ancient Camino de Santiago.
The author traveled this route in May and June 2000 and in a diary is narrating everything since leaving from Saint Jean Pied-de-Port and went to Santiago de Compostela, covering the 800 km on foot with a backpack and a staff on a pilgrimage of religious character, where he had an insight and a lot of emotions, where he met several people of different nationalities, entered into several churches, monuments contemplated, enjoyed the scenery and wildlife. When you finish the path was to Finisterre, a little later where many pilgrims go after arriving in Santiago de Compostela, burn your clothes, in a sign of purification, but not burned clothes.
