in Washington D.C. the National Gallery Museum has Camino wall calendars on sale. About 12 x 12 they are distributed by Tushita, Inc. USA - tushita.usa@tushita.com - ISBN 978-3-86765-335-0. and are entitled "The year 2010. CAMINO DE SANTIAGO Way and Destination."
Also, a just published book about the Camino written by medievalist professor Kathleen Ashley of the University of Southern Maine, admirably illustrated by Marilyn Deegan who is Professor Emeritus in the Humanities at Kings College in London. The name of the book is "BEING A PILGRIM" Art and Ritual on the Medieval Routes to Santiago (ISBN 978-0-85331-989-4).
The narratives of the culture, geography, and social and architectural infrastructure of the pilgrimage are richly complemented by riveting sections on visiting the Saints, the wonder of the towns, legends folklore and miracles, the musical journey and the ritual endings of the Pilgrimage in Santiago.
The illustrations and photographs are incomparably revealing and fascinating in major and minor details. The book is large, about 10 by 12 inches, and weighty since its 261 pages are printed in that heavy glossy paper of art books.It costs $60. and is worth every penny.
PS: Barnes & Noble have the book for $40.50 and people in the UK can buy a 2nd hand book through Amazon.co.uk for £18.
Adding these publications to the recently completed encyclopedia put together by our very own Kathy Gower it certainly does seem that Christmas has come early this year.
