LIFE CHANGING ON EVERY LEVEL!!!!
Format: Hardcover
This isn’t just a book by any means because you will want to highlight things and read several times!! This is a real lifetime manual that can be referenced as often as necessary. I have purchased several to gift to loved ones because I want them to receive the blessings that I have through this book. God truly works through Pastor Todd but Pastor Todd’s “keep it real “approach to his wisdom is so down to earth as if he’s your best friend with great advice at your home visiting and kicking it with you. Made me wanna watch all of Transformation Church’s videos on YouTube and listen to the podcasts in my car. The first few lines and chapters of this book will give you spiritual and common sense “ah haa” moments. You can’t stop reading. A definite page turner. I have grown spiritually and emotionally but more importantly was reminded of a lot of life lessons that will continue to foster the amazing life that God has for us all if you are obedient to his instruction. This will improve every relationship of any kind. But more importantly the relationship you have with yourself, to help you make the life changes for the life you really deserve.

Beautiful book with history, destination information, and photos
Format: Hardcover
I knew very little about the Camino de Santiago prior to obtaining this book. However, the book is stunning in its information about destinations, history, towns you'll pass through along the way, and beautiful photos that create desire to hike or bike the trail in the immediate future. I found myself engulfed in this book and wanting to do several of the trails as soon as possible! The book, unlike other DK books I own, is hard cover. It's solid and durable and could easily be a coffee table book rather than a hiking guide. In fact, I think it may be meant in this way to be used rather than a take-along for a long hiking trip. If you're thinking about exploring the Camino de Santiago, this is a must read!

A very good book if you will travel the Camino de Santiago as a pilgrim
Format: Hardcover
This book captures the flavor of each of eight Caminos to reach Santiago de Compostela (there are more than that, but not given more than a mention - these are the main ones). The Caminos take you from where they enter Spain from France and Portugal all the way to Santiago de Compostela; the exception is the one from Lisbon. You can almost "feel" the experience of each walk. The book will help you select a Camino, based on from where you are coming, what you'd like to see (scenery, towns, villagers, etc.), and how much stamina you have. The book starts off with a wonderful history of the the Caminos from when they were developed through modern times, and how they changed over time, not just in terms of physical changes, but in terms of the types of people who traversed them (pilgrims to hippies) and how they evolved with various religions and politics of the times. There is a very nice synopses of the eight Caminos, highlighting the differences between them. This provides an overview of why you may or may not consider taking that Camino. The book then goes into detail about each one, elaborating on what I wrote in the first paragraph above. This is where one gets an excellent "feel" for the Camino, enabling you to determine if it is for you or not. It also gives you basics on things to see and do along the way, including places that would be great and welcoming for pilgrims. Don't expect too much detail here, but certainly enough to give you the flavor of the Camino. All sections, but especially this one, have excellent photos to complement the text. The culminating chapter, of course, is the one on Santiago de Compostela. This one was a bit disappointing, as it provided only a bit over one page of text on the sites there. I would have thought there would be more, especially about the Cathedral itself, as that is the destination the travelers had spent days to reach. Instead, it basically just listed a bit more than bullets of what to see in the Cathedral. One third of the text in this Chapter was about the museums. There was practically nothing about the squares around each side of the Cathedral and all the places along them. For this city, I would suggest a different tour book if you want to see more. I have the hard cover book, which was very nice for me to read at home. However, if I were to go on one of the Caminos, I would take no more than a Kindle, which is nowhere near as unwieldy as a large, heavy book. If I didn't like Kindles, I would want to bring a paperback, but sadly, the book is not available in paperback. Overall, I believe that the way the author enables one to experience the Caminos is well worth the cost of the book.

great guide to hiking (or biking) the Camino de Santiago trails
Format: Hardcover
Spain is one of my favorite European destinations, and while I have not done the Camino de Santiago yet, it is an area that is definitely on my radar for an upcoming trip. This book focuses on the trails and the regions they pass through, and gives quite a bit of detail and background to successfully plan a trip there. Now, I am not religious, and I am purely interested in the historical and cultural aspects of the region, not looking to have a spiritual experience. Fortunately the book is written in such a way that it is respectful to those who *are* looking for the latter, but it doesn't focus on it as much as I feared that it might. So it'll be useful to me in planning my travels. The one issue that I have about this book, which I *almost* took a star off of my rating for, is that the book is a little *too* sturdy. My big complaint with the regular DK travel guides in recent years is that they've gone to cheaper paper, cheaper covers, and cheaper binding than they used to use, to the point that they feel almost fragile to me. This book, ironically made as a guide for hiking and biking trips, has the opposite problem... It's hardcover, and it's kind of bulky. I mean, that's great, normally I'd be in favor of that... But if I'm going to be hiking for days or weeks (some of the trails in this book take over three weeks to complete according to the book), the last thing I'm going to want to do is carry this thing around. It's a little baffling that they'd choose this of all books to make hardcover. Honestly, though, I am probably not hiking (at least not for a multi-week trail... maybe for a few days in there, for the rest I'll take a train or rent a car), which is why I decided not to remove a star. But if you will be hiking, it may be something you'll want to consider.
