About the Book

A Mother, A Daughter… A Pilgrimage There is something about long-distance trails that implies introspection, contemplation, meditation, and most of all, the completion of a journey. It becomes even more pilgrimage-oriented when a mother and a daughter, separated by an ocean, make the commitment for eight consecutive years to walk together toward their ultimate destination: the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Meandering throughout 1,000 miles of French and Spanish trails, their journey explores the culture and history of this ancient pilgrimage route.
