Why read it?
1 author picked The Camino for the Rest of Us as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
As an avid hiker, I've contemplated hiking the Camino from time to time, but always put it off since it's not a wilderness trek. However, reading Tim's guide + commentary made me reconsider how I perceived the Camino experience.
He spends the first half of the book covering the history of the Camino and what it means to be on a pilgrimage in modern times--even if you aren't religious. Unlike traditional guide books, this was an enjoyable read before setting foot on the trail. I even enjoyed reading through the trail segment sections because of his anecdotes and excellent descriptions.
