The Way of Saint James, Volume III

Georgiana Goddard King's seminal study, The Way of Saint James, is fi nally reissued. Completed in 1917, this three-volume masterpiece
is a wide-ranging exploration of the history, literature, legends, and
architecture of the Camino de Santiago. It is based on Professor
King's "three years wanderings" on foot and by cart, mule, and
other conveyance on the Spanish pilgrimage road, and on extensive
academic research with particular emphasis on medieval art and
architecture.
Professor King was both a well-respected scholar and a keen observer
of her surroundings. As a result, she has given us a fascinating,
detailed description of both life and architecture on the Camino
de Santiago nearly 100 years ago.Thoroughly documented, with
extensive notes and appendices, this is a must-have reference book
not only for art historians but also for any true afi cionado of the
Camino de Santiago.
