| Description: |
This title offers a guide book for the pilgrimage from Santiago de Compostela to Fisterra including the Muxia extension with full colour pictures and maps. |
| Synopsis: |
Finis-terre translates simply as "end of the world", and provided a dramatic focal point for one of the most potent western vision quests in the medieval world. It was here that the material and spiritual worlds met. Beyond the horizon was tir na nog - the land of eternal youth. Its potency is not lost on the pilgrims that still come here, seeking to reconcile the inner and outer realities in their lives. This guidebook seeks to find the balance between these worlds by following a practical and mystical path for each stage along the way. Offering inspirational quotations, it endeavours to pay equal respect to both. The book offers a practical and mystical manual for the modern day pilgrim with colour photographs and fold-out maps showing all the different routes to Santiago and Finisterre, together with a diary to record both outer and inner experiences. |
