"The Pilgrim's Guide to Santiago de Compostela" presents the first complete English translation of Book Five of the Liber Sancti Jacobi or Codex Calixtinus. The medieval Christian world knew three major pilgrimage sites - Jerusalem, Rome, and Santiago de Compostela. This twelfth-century guidebook traces the route from southern France to Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain.
Pilgrimage to Compostela was a once-in-a-lifetime human adventure. Between the eleventh and thirteenth centuries Santiago de Compostela was by far the most popular. Hundreds of thousands of pilgrims came year after year through France and across the Pyrenees to Santiago de Compostela near the Atlantic shores of Galicia.
