Présentation de l'éditeur

What could inspire a man or woman in the Middle Ages to leave behind the security of a familiar community to face dire peril? This book investigates the motives of the pilgrim, the society enjoyed by a company of travelling pilgrims, and, in particular, the routes they took to one of Catholic Europe's holiest destinations, Bardsey Island. The author seccesfully interwaves history, religion, myth and legend into an engrossing and highly readable volume.
