| Publisher Description: Part comedy, part travelogue, meditations on life, love, and pasta...SIX MONTHS WALKING THE WILDS (Of Western Europe) is a journal of the author's 2000-mile walk through Italy, France, and Spain tracing the historic pilgrimage known as El Camino de Santiago. His route begins in the heel of Italy's boot and runs up through Rome and Siena, beside the sea at Cinque Terre, northward to Genoa. Skirting the Ligurian coastline, passing harbors of the rich and famous at Monte Carlo, the trail turns west across France and over the Pyr nn es into Spain near Pamplona. From this point thousands of pilgrims walk the north of Spain each year, heading for the cathedral at Santiago de Compostela. Six months of the author's twists, turns, and trials converge with the stories of those who traveled from all over Spain, from many points of Western Europe, from countries all around the world. |
