Virgin Trails
Sunday, January 10th, 2010
This is a travel book with hefty servings of history. It’s about Marian pilgrimages and is written by a non-believer who nevertheless volunteers at Lourdes. A good part of it is about various shrines to the Blessed Virgin found along Spain’s Camino de Santiago. The book is strikingly respectful of and uncommonly accurate about Catholic belief and practice.
