Description

Almost 300,000 people 'officially' complete the journey to Santiago each year, with hundreds of thousands more travelling at least part of the way.

In Travels With a Stick, Richard Frazer discovers on his pilgrimage to the shrine of St James the Great how a journey, wherever it is made, undertaken with an open and hospitable heart can provide spiritual renewal and transformation, filling what many people see as the spiritual void in 21st-century life.

This absorbing account reveals how the pilgrim journey can be nourishment for the human heart. It connects us to landscape and brings us to the mystery of what it is to be human, vulnerable, and open to the kindness of strangers and the gift of the new and the unexpected.
