An Excellent Reference for the Art & Architecture of Camino- By: , 15 May 2001 This book is a great reference for the Pilgrimage Route of the Camino de Santiago. If you are planning to do the Camino, grab this book & read it first to give you a good foundation of History, folklore, Art & architecture of the Camino before you set out. The authors share a wealth of knowledge about the Camino that makes the experience much more rewarding than making the Camino without the background & knowledge that they provide. I'd only hesitate to throw itin my backpack because of the weight, but have used it to make extensive notesin my walking guide to highlight the must see parts of the camino.
