Because this guide is not really -from the admission of the author-an organization guide and travel planning but a psychological preparation guide! This is much better, believe me, because since I travel for a year feverishly sites, blogs and forums dealing with the subject, I say that you can not find the manual "Key-in-hand "the Way. It is for each walker, every pilgrim has the responsibility to look into his journey and glean here and there, information that will form the mass in which he will find the answers to his expectations, desires and above all needs! There are so many ways (practical and psychological) to undertake this adventure I regret that an author has even one day pretend to write down A sacrosanct ONLY way / method / way to do it. On such an initiative, the apparent path adventure undoubtedly very impoverished.
While here, the Alexandra texts Lassus a walker who was among the thousands of walkers to direct his steps towards Galicia, are more akin to advice, opinions vigilance, tricks and findings that allow navigate each player, not in the organization of his trip but in his state of mind. One who prepares his passenger withdraw this guide a bunch of useful information that he had not necessarily thought (example: yes, the user soap as shampoo may seem a priori a good idea to reduce the weight of her bag but must still wish to take the Jackson Five cuts for the rest of his life ...) and those who have already made the journey can easily confirm the anecdotes and stories that mark the guide and enrich his family. Served by the irresistible illustrations full of malice and cool blogger Charlotte Day, its pages have charmed me and had fun. The thematic classification allows to the chase and find advice on a specific point.
Without wishing to my purist, my only downside focus on some practical deficiencies (still), for example (and it probably will lend to smile) the importance of choosing socks, also capital than shoes or decide the matter "Yes or no, take walking sticks or conversely not to clutter?", this kind of details that in the end, are not for the pilgrim who embarks on a journey of 1700 km walk !
