I purchased this book to learn about the Road to Santiago, but I have read it cover to cover. It covers sacred pilgrimages made by believers of many religions and over most of the planet. The author shows respect for all seekers and pilgrimages, and explains their purposes so that I could understand why this pilgrimage was important to each faith. I really loved the practical information, such as the detailed maps of the route, and have referred back to many of the pilgrimages often. An outstanding collection for anyone who wants to understand more about the nature of the spiritual journey.
