Books that Help Prepare for the Way
Two people came into my life that have given me pause. The first is Ailsa Piper . In her account of the Camino Walk Sinning Across Spain , she writes beautifully of her experience of both events and her inner life. I particularly liked her love of language, landscape and a good yarn, seasoned with delightful servings of poems. T he second is Noel Braun . I've met Noel Braun on a couple of occasions. After his wife died, Noel went on a Camino. He described this in his book The Day was Made for Walking . After that, he did the Portuguese Camino and related his experience in I Guess I'll Just Keep on Walking . There are others out there. These two have helped me.
