Brian, author of two books on Spanish wine and Spanish culture, returns to recount the humorous adventures of his six-day journey along the Portuguese route of the Camino de Santiago (The St. James' Way pilgrimage) in northern Spain, which he and three Spanish friends set out on during the 2010 Holy Year. It's a delirious mixture of travel, history, facts, anecdotes and plain fun. In addition to the physical and spiritual challenge they encounter on the way, they confronted daily tests of a more mundane nature like trying to leave a country to urinate, outsmarting a puppy, appeasing an angry mother with hungry children, and enduring seismic snoring. In others words, living the Camino of Life itself. After more than twenty years of residing in Spain, Brian possesses a knowledge and insight about this land that few outsiders do, and at the same time still preserves the right touch of foreign innocence. So, take that first step and join the journey. You won't want to look back!
A Pilgrim with No Direction Six days on the Camino de Santiago eBook Brian R Murdock
I really enjoyed Murdock's book and I am recommending it to all my friends. We are planning to hike the Portuguese Camino this fall and we were looking for books about the experience. I really enjoyed his descriptions of the towns and areas that they hiked through on their way to Santiago. I also liked the parts about the FOOD they encountered along the way, I can't wait to get to Redondela and have a squid empanada.I thought there was a nice balance between historical bits about the towns and the camino interspersed with his own adventures along the trail.

A Pilgrim with No Direction Six days on the Camino de Santiago eBook Brian R Murdock Reviews
Brian Murdock has written a witty and warmhearted book about how he and some friends went about "on the road" of the millenneal old pilgrim route to the Spanish town of Santiago de Compostela. It's easy and fun reading from start to end. You end up wondering how these "totally regular guys" manage to get there in the end, eating so much and sleeping so little.
